More Graylings!



In search of good waters, we drove south of Kluane National Park before we had to cut back north.

We found a decent looking stream, and as soon as my uncle cast in, he caught an arctic grayling. The water was full of small graylings and small rainbow trout. The trout were are a lot more fun to catch (graylings seem to give up and die as soon as they bite the hook); however, the only decent-sized fish that I caught were graylings.

I walked through the woods and found this bend in the stream. I cast a bit upstream and let my line run over a hole cutting through the bend.



I caught one 20-incher, and we fried it with some other graylings for dinner that night. Here are the remains of the big guy.
