This is the Tanana River in Nenana, Alaska. It's one of the Yukon's largest tributaries. I can break my usual "no naming rivers" policy for this picture because there's no fishing (except with bait for burbot) in the Tanana -- it runs with incredibly turbid glacial melt-water in which game fishing is pretty much impossible. You literally can't see an INCH into it, probably not even half an inch.

I'm in this picture casing into the riffle above one of my favorite pools. The fishing was fine, but the catching wasn't so hot. I got one strike on my carefully tied nymphs and two on my cheap foam strike indicator.

This is my largest brook trout ever (as of June '06). Disclaimer: Before any C&R evangelists go for my throat, I'll point out that this is the only trout I've kept all year, and it inhaled my dry fly directly into its gills and ripped one of them out during the fight. It was mine or the herons'.

This deer ran at least a hundred yards in front of our canoe before it finally decided to get out of the river. Here it just hurdled a beaver dam.
