Little Su 7-20

I fished the Little Su today with three clients. The water was higher than it had been and a bit dirty, some of this was due to boat traffic and some to rain runoff. There were several boats on the lower river today from the landing to three trees. The fishing started out slowly but we got a silver in the boat at 6:40 am after missing a few bites. We continued to hook, land and loose several fish. We hooked three Chums but only landed one today. The Chum had sea lice on it and was headed to the smoker. The silvers, our limit, were all as bright as could be, normal for early season fish. The fish were all between 6 and 12 pounds. We caught them on Mepps and Vibrax spinners in every color of the neon rainbow.
We saw a Moose cow and her calf this morning, a beaver, several mallards and a couple of eagles during the trip. I will be fishing this week but we have openings so give us a call to book your trip with Alaska Susitna Charters.
