Slow Week Small Fish

That was today's headline in the local paper. Dip netting season opened Friday on the Kenai and it has been typically slow. The run hasn't shown up until the last two weeks of July for quite a few years and it looks like this year will follow suit. 

We (Tony, me and Chad from Kenai AFSS) went out of the free launch at the east end of Redoubt to check it out. 

I got one little hen and that was it. 

Tony is taking Bill and Jake dipping tomorrow. I'm hoping that if I offer to fillet them all I might get enough for a smoker full (5 fish). 

Rained today, perfect fishing weather.
