[cool]...yes, I am a very lucky guy that was able to go fish the Good News river again...and what a trip!! Anyone interested in flyfishing for Silvers....I would dare say this is one of the best rivers in the world to fish for silvers
]....Just to give you an idea of the trip....average fish weighed 14lbs (quite large for silvers) AND at least half of our fish each day were landed on a popper...on top!!!! Each day we would catch at least 40+ fish..a variety of salmon (pinks, chum, silvers, kings, sockeye) and then our AVERAGE dolly varden was 22 inches. I caught two around 26 inches...amazing fish that never stop fighting. I will post a few pics once I find my cable. If anyone is interested let me know and I'll give you more details on who to contact up there to rent gear and which company we used to fly us in from Dillingham. Entire trip was just over $2500 -includes everything (all flights/food/gear rentals)-well worth saving $ and going at least once!
