Our final day at the Tree River was a short one! It was extremely smokey too because of the forest fires from the south. We had a few hours to fly fish before a new load of fly fishers arrived. Karen and I headed upstream along with our guide Alex. We tangled with a few arctic char before we had to hustle back to the kitchen shack, get out of our waders, eat lunch and head for the plane!
Hearty soup and sashimi was on the menu! Raw arctic char with soya sauce and wasabi was delicious.
We took off and headed down the arctic coast to the mouth of the Coppermine River in order to take on fuel at Klugluktuk. We took a brief stroll while the refuelling took place and then we headed back to the lodge for an afternoon of lake trout fly fishing!
Heading to Kluguktuk along the Arctic coast!
