Spring

What Does Spring Fishing On Ponoi Mean?

During the second week of the 2012 season, the tundra is starting to go green with tiny leaves on the birch trees.  The advancing spring always brings with it warmer temperatures, and the endless arctic days that allow anglers to fish the famed Ryabaga <http://www.ponoiriver.com/public/publicWrapper.php>  Home Pool through the midnight hours.  Spring in Ryabaga is the time when anglers are met with the pleasure of catching seemingly countless salmon on any given day, and it is a springtime rule that guides rarely lay down the net.  In addition to numbers this week, though, it was the size, strength, and shape of the fish that over-wintered under the ice that was a true testament to the quality of Spring fishing on Ponoi.

The Platinum Package

I know from ample experience that when traveling coach-class, jockeying for overhead compartment space and sufficient legroom can prove a maddening experience.  To add insult to injury, coach riders must peer forward as the Platinum, Elite, and VIP travellers stow overstuffed “fair share” wheelie bags, sip chilled champagne, and are tucked lovingly into their cushy seats by well-heeled stewards and stewardesses.  My time in the trenches, crammed into a coach seat while sniveling over my allotment of salted peanuts, affirms for me the fact that we should all at times be afforded the privilege of first class.  Which is why, in Ryabaga Camp, guests are treated as the elite travelers and anglers that they are.  The Platinum Package is what we serve up here on Ponoi.
