    I went fly fishing with Natalie on Chichagof island. She’s super knowledgeable and organized. Saw a couple brown bears and caught a bunch of beautiful searun cutthroat trout. After learning from her, I did more fly fishing on my own in southeast Alaska and caught more fish. I wouldn’t have known where to start without her. Natalie also cooked one of the cutthroat on the beach, it was delicious. I hope to go fishing with her again, this time for steelhead.
