And , like I said, the Situk is a short run river. 20 miles long through heavily forested (At least when I was there) land and very little if any flooding. Very little bank access. Only bank access was at the 9 mile bridge (?) where the boats were launched and at the takeout in the lower river ( A short distance up from the mouth). Like I said, I fished it four years in a row along time ago. Last week of April to the first week of May. The weather was never the same each year we went. One year was sunny and clear and the next year there was 5 ft. of snow on the ground. Lots of brown bear and moose.
