Alaska Fishing

On the 6th of July, son-in-law, Keith, grandson, Kellen, and I flew to Ketchikan, Alaska. We then took a sea plane to Yess Bay Lodge, which is about 50 miles north of Ketchikan. We spent the next three days fishing for salmon and halibut. We were fairly successful and came with about 74 pounds of filets. Grandson Kellen caught a "king" salmon each day, and the lodge guests nicknamed him the "King Slayer".

Shown are: Yes Bay Lodge, the first mornings catch, Keith with a nice halibut, the second morning's catch, the third afternoon's catch, snow on the mountains, and Kellen & Keith with a 30 pound king.
