Rafting on the Elk River ...

August 14, 2016

Another beautiful day ... for a fly fishing trip on the Elk River ...

While the guys were waiting for the raft ...

they did do some fishing ...

Once they were on the Elk River ...

Nathan (Chief) ... set the fly rod up for Mike to cast his line into the pool ...

The line hit the water ...

and low and behold a nice size Rainbow trout was caught ...

This was only the beginning of their adventure ...

rafting on the Elk River ...

Floating along ... stopping at some interesting pools ...

Nathan caught a Rainbow Trout ...

It was an exciting trip for them ...

enjoying the ride and fishing ...

All the guys having fun ... floating down the river ...

capturing a selfie photo ... before they headed into the rough waters ...

where they had to hold on for dear life ...

I was told it was quite the experience ...

Mike & Nathan were grateful ...

they had an experienced team ... taking them thru this area ...

Floating on the river ... making their way to the pick up area ...

fishing day complete ...

What a beautiful sight ...

with the full moon ... light reflecting on the water ...

It took the guys about one and half hours ...

to drag the raft out of the water ...

up to the shuttle van and trailer ...

and then drive to where I was waiting to pick them up ...

I was delighted to see them all ...

and the smiles on their faces said it all ...

They had an awesome time ... !!!

I plan to have Nathan (Chief) ... guide another fishing trip again ...

hopefully Ian can join his dad and brother next time ...

Thank you Nathan Kelly for making this a memorable adventure ...

for Mike & Nathan ...
