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.

Fished up river. I took two fish in little pockets
below the "Flat Hole", 11 and 11 1/2 lbs. Steve Tushk
