Red Shirt Lake Fishing in Matanuska Susitna County, Alaska
Tyonek C-1 Area

My family went on a three day trip this last weekend at redshirt and it was great! Lots of fish and the biggest ones were caught right from the bank! Very peaceful and can't wait to go back! Even saw a mama bear and her cub. That was cool! The three mile hike was not the best cuz we brought to much to carry that far. So pack light...very light. We learned alot the first time so next time it will be a breeze. Still it was a wonderful weekend

Took a weekend trip to this place with a few of my young co-workers. And I tell you what the hike nearly kicked my ass. We hiked with 50 lbs packs thinking we were going to need all that we brung. So I had to drink some of my supply. 20lbs lighter I hiked it some more. After the first hour of hiking I had to sit down every 10 minutes and lite up a smoke. I just couldn't breathe. Man I just couldn't hang with them whipper snappers. When we finally got to the camp ground. It was neat. Caught my first pike with in an hour of canoeing. Make sure to bring kindle for the camp fire. Cuz when we went, it rained the night before.
