Fishing in Alaska

A couple of weeks ago, Lynn took a 8 day trip with his brother Richard to Alaska on the Kenai River so they could catch them some big fish. The last three days they flew to a Lodge that is owned by our Niece's husband's parents, Doug and his friend met them there. I told him to take lots of pictures but he not being a big picture taker only took a few. He did see some bears, one of them was right outside his cabin but he only has video of them so I will try to download those, my computer does not like to download videos, I do not know why.


This is a Dolly Varden fish.
