Nice thing about fly fishing up here is that the more remote you are, the better the fishing and the less fly fishing skill you need to catch large fish. The downside is the more remote you are, the more expensive it is.

Still, drifting down the Kenai in September should result in 10-20 rainbows per day, several over 20". That's pretty doable because its a short drive from Anchorage.
Alaska is on the list of places I'd love to visit.

You know you are a fly fishing junkie when you always pack your fishing gear just because there is *some* water nearby that you *might* be able to fish. Rod, waders, boots, and vest/chestpack take up more room in your bag than you'd think.

Also, never send a rod tube through checked luggage. They fall off of the luggage system rollers every damn time and get lost.
