ALASKA PENINSULA KINGS




Most of Alaska has experienced poor runs of King Salmon the past few years. An exception is the good King Salmon Runs on the Alaska Peninsula.

Friend Gary LaRose who operates Pumice Creek Lodge has good runs of King Salmon while fishing on the Cinder River.

The Cinder River is approx 13 miles from Pumice Creek Lodge. Gary flys clients over to the river each morning for a fantastic day of fishing. Here you wll see no other fishermen other than those in your group.

Gary is a lifetime resident and knows the rivers of the Alaska Peninsula well. I have been to the lodge numerous times and highly recommend this is the place for good Kings, monster silvers, numerous dolly varden, trophy moose, monsterous Alaska Brown Bear and good bird hunting.

Book now to get into the action!! Check out www.garylarose.com for more information!

La Zona update for last 2 weeks in April


Friend Steve Cihat fished the Uruguay River in the section called La Zona during April 19th to 22nd. Steve's group of 4 had excellent fishing with the lagest dorado caught by Dr. Everette Howell at a gigantic 48lbs! This was Dr. Howell's first trip to La Zona. Congratulations! Dr. Howell's wife caught a giant 40lbs in one of her first fishing trips of her life. What a way to start off your fishing career!

Steve Cihat said the top lures were Rapala mag 30 in firetiger and large Bass Buzz Baits with large colarado blades. Steve reports boating 68 dorado in 1 day! This is amazing as the dorado are very difficult to land due to their "jaws of steel"!

Friend Dr. Carroll Mann's group fished in La Zona the following week April 226th-29th
They also had great action with the largest dorado reported for the week at a monsterous 45lbs.

According to head guide Enzo, the top 5 dorado caught in La Zona so far this season have all been caught in April with 50lbs being the largest. The others were 48lbs, 47lbs, 46lbs and 45lbs. Looks like April is a great time for big dorado.

Another great time to catch monster dorado is during the months of September and October when the dorado stage up to spawn. The dorado normally packs on a few pounds during these months.

Check out www.untamedangling.com and www.untamedangling.blogspot.com to follow the dorado fishing along with my posts.
