Day 2 Ponoi, up river!

Up river today. Ponoi is big, most places 200-300 m wide with medium flow. When you think you need to fish deep we don’t talk heavy sinking lines. The river is simply not deep enough for that. I must say that one thing that is super is guides and staff. An international mix of fishing bums together with the Russians make things very comfortable. The guides are pros and do a great job. Food excellent and the cabins cosy. Great when weather is cold. Forecast say that we are looking at 15 C below… Today’s fishing was a bit tricky. We started with two sea liced beauties to the boat, but after they just pulled and turned away. Back at home pool I walked up to Ryabaga and fished the little stream. Landed one old fish and two sea liced beauties. Fantastic hour, they took the orange fly on the TTT with an old Salar gold double. Cool kit actually. The life on the tundra is though now in October when winter is rapidly closing in. Today Martin had a great sea liced 19 lbs – I want one like that too…
