Title: Fishing in the rain?
Post by: gstours on April 27, 2016, 06:38:57 AM
Last Saturday I took the boat out for a drive and trolled a little for King Salmon.  It was kinda grey with light winds.

As I found a small waterfall seemingly coming out of the bank near the treeline I discovered a couple of bears on the beach ahead.

I couldnt tell if these were brown black bears or what they were from a distance.

Later the rain eased up a bit, but not untill I hooked and landed a nice tasty prize.

Again I felt Lucky as I was all alone in a big world of unsurpassed scenery.  In a giant rainforest of peacefullness and primevil.
