Steve Kohl - San Francisco Jim Adams - San Francisco PSE - Berkeley Guides or hosts Darrell Hodson and wife Nancy Randy Hodson Aug 18, 1978 Arrived on charter airplane from Bella Coola, Wilderness Airlines. Were met at airstrip south of the Olean by Randy in an old car. drove to boat landing above the Cox canyon. went on to camp in two jet boats. had lunch and fished a couple of hours before dinner. A black bear sow and two cubs gounded the bank across from camp. I hooked a fish but it pulled the fly right off my leader - will use better knots from now on. I did hook and landed a big chinook - weight something over his 28 lb. scale. Pretty well spent. Aug 19, 1978 Fished up river. I took two fish in little pockets below the "Flat Hole", 11 and 11 1/2 lbs. Steve Tushk
