SWELL RIDER..THE ALASKA CHRONICALS..WEEK 1

[swell rider]

Just a quick check in before we head backout..Well the first week has felt great but the word of the day is SORE!!!! funny how the old muscles just love to tighten up after a couple years off the deck. The weather has been plain cold, this morning when we got on the gear it was NW 25 gust to 35 air temp -05 with heavey freezing spray and the only change over the next couple days is a bunch of snow. The deck has been a sheet of ice but with good fishing who's going to complain. For now it's back to icing my knee before the next go round stand by for some picture when I get alittle more time...

Looking forward to frostbite via photo essays! I do not envy you at 5 below with 25-35 Knot winds....but look very forward to the pics as I look across rising fog.....uh.....i mean steam.....from my coffee cup.
Is coffee even better when it's 5 below? I imagine it is.
Be safe.....and hurry up with the pics.
