OK, I'll bite.... finally:

In my heart, my "home" river will always be the mighty Kenai.... the river where I first wet a line as an 10 yr old kid.... the place where my lifelong fishNaddiction was spawned. But realistically it's only a 4 month season.... 5 tops if you are pushing it, unless of course ice fishing is your gig.

From a practical point of view, it's pretty damn tough to beat good old Grays Harbor. Summer steelhead right in my back yard, within an hour or two in several SW WA streams, or a couple hours north on the coastal OP. Summer fishing for ocean salmon, bottomfish, and later tuna. Fantastic salmon fishing in my back yard during the fall. Winter steelhead again in my back yard or up TRBO's way. Springers and sturgeon a couple hours south to the Columbia. Did I say summer steelhead....

Ok that's one hell of a never-ending fishing season, don't you think? Now if I could just break away a little more often to enjoy it.
