Tales of the Yukon - An Early Season Fly Fishing Adventure for Grayling in the Far North - Part One
Come and listen to the Food Afield Podcast episode about fly fishing the wonderful Arctic Grayling in Canada's far north with Alex and Erin.
The days were already getting noticeably longer that far north, but it still took us a few days to find spring, let alone the fish. Here is the first part of our trip, an introduction to the Yukon and some of the beautiful scenes that we experienced on our journey.
We started off in great anticipation of big Grayling jumping from crystal clear waters. Those visions were quickly dashed as our boat confronted a mass of ice, still frozen across the lake. Intrepidly, we carried on. We fished hard. We had a blast.
