I found out Saturday night I had a window of about four hours to fish. So who could I called at the last minute that can go?

Kim, of course , he said "meet you at 3.00am" and he hung up the phone

We arrived at the river at 4:15 am and had to wait until 5:15,for any light. We could only fish till 10.00am because I had to be home by noon.

We split up and we were only there maybe 30 minutes when Kim gave me a yell and I saw his rod bent. I worked my way down to him and we fished for the next three hours hooking fish

The weather was bad with two snow squalls and blowing winds. We were chilled to the bone,I couldn't feel my hands or feet when we came off the river but it was one of the most memorable fishing trips this year. I hope to have a video up in a few weeks.
