Alaska / Canada

Logjam Creek, Prince of Wales, Alaska
Control Lake Cabin, Prince of Wales, Alaska (this is a forest service cabin we stayed in)

12 pound Silver (Coho) salmon from Klawock River, Alaska (Prince of Wales)
This is a Chinook (King, or sometimes called 'Spring') salmon, taken offshore from Sooke, British Columbia (Vancouver Island)...it weighed about 30 pounds, so they call it a "Tyee"
Prince of Wales, Alaska
Beautiful male Sockeye salmon, Klawock river, Alaska
A big Chum (dog) salmon...the huge, sharp teeth scared me....
Dad with a male humpy (pink salmon), caught on a fly (see in corner of mouth), Black Bear Creek, Prince of Wales, Alaska
Onboard Captain Otto Green's boat, near Craig, Alaska
Chris, Curtis, and Clif with a few fish from the bottom (Klawock, Alaska)...mostly halibut and cod, with a few snapper and rock fish
My grandfather, Charles Clifton Andrews' homemade salmon rod...we took it with us to Alaska and caught a bunch of salmon with it (for family history reasons)
