Follow along with award-winning sportswriter Lew Freedman as he journals an unforgettable season of fly fishing along the Kenai River.
Just as you never know what kind of fish and what size fish might be tugging on your line when the rod bends, you never know what kind of excitement awaits during a season on the Kenai River. Located in Southcentral Alaska, the Kenai River is a world-class salmon river attracting fishermen from all over the world. Each summer thousands of anglers fish the magical Kenai River. Discover what makes the eighty-five-mile-long river a dream destination for the devout fisherman inside My Season on the Kenai.
Freedman’s amusing stories and first-hand experience are sure to entertain and inspire the avid angler, with valuable information and insights sprinkled in each chapter.
Lew Freedman lived in Alaska for seventeen years and regularly fished the Kenai River—and wrote about it. Currently, the outdoors/adventure writer for the Chicago Tribune, Freedman is the author of twenty-one books about Alaska. Included among those are Live from the Kenai River, Reelin' Em In With Celebrity Fishing Guide Harry Gaines, a biography of the pioneer guide on the Kenai River, and Fishing for a Laugh, which includes many stories about adventures and humorous incidents that occurred on the Kenai River.
Freedman has a deep familiarity with the Kenai River and knows many of the key players involved in river life, from guides to preservationists. Alas, frequently, despite his best efforts to make friends, he is not always on speaking terms with the salmon.
