Flies: Bring size 2 and 6 Dolly Llamas. Lots of them. Enough to lose 4 or more each day and not run dry. Black and white and olive and white. The Dollys are the key. Bring the other typical flies and some salmon flies and DEFINITELY some mice patterns. Dollys are heavy so make sure to cast them and bring the appropriate rod - maybe a 7 or 8 with an integrated sink tip....
This is why you go to Alaska and float a remote wilderness river. A beautiful sunset at camp well after midnight.
Ok, maybe it's not the long days and beautiful sunsets. Maybe it's for the 20+ inch rainbows that...

A great guy and one of the most knowledgeable people on geography, creeks, streams, native trout and their conservation that I have had the pleasure of sharing a long drive and fishing trip with. Getting to the story of the 12th though, many folks that have looked at the illustrations in Behnke's book showing the distribution of redband...
Fishing trips have been few and far between for me this past year or so. With a two year old daughter, a pregnant wife (due 10/10/10 - wouldn't that be cool?), a demanding job and a new house, time has been somewhat of a scarce commodity for me of late.
