Pink and white dolly lama

HIGHLIGHT OF THE WEEK:
Salmon and Dolly fishing was very good and towards the end of the week the weather improved dramatically.
WILDLIFE SPOTTED:
One cow moose and starting to see a lot of specs flying over.

COMMENTS FOR THE WEEK:
When the weather started to improve towards the end of the week Gavin took his guests on a little walk off the main river towards a lake off the main flow and caught Pike in shallow water with green Clouser minnows. We also caught the first Silvers of the year. Chum fishing is still going strong and the Dollies are in good numbers and are bigger than normal. We also caught quite a few Kings right to the end of the season.
