Reds ... on the Kenai ... in the middle of July ................................................... I can think of a couple of things: wear a hardhat and safety goggles; fish with no lighter than 20lb. line; and don't spend any money on 'red' or 'coho' flies - bare hooks do the exact same job every bit as well! Have fun

PS - Never touch a red until you've knocked it on the noggin because you may find yourself connected to a thrashing red by someone else's hook!
