Nov 2-3rd, Klamath River




In the summer of 2003, Robert stepped off of a Russian MI-8 helicopter on the banks of Kamchatka’s Zhuponova River and we’ve fished together ever since. After spending a day on the Klamath last fall, he rebooked the date and added an additional one to this year’s trip. With good reason too, as he experienced the river under ideal conditions and some outstanding steelhead fishing. Monday’s float started with a fish on the first cast and ended leaving us hopeful of a repeat the following day. Tuesday morning’s bite slowed but turned on again in the afternoon with some beautiful fish caught wading knee-deep riffles. And as the light faded that evening, Robert set on a steelhead that left our leader empty and us wondering, at least until next year.
