Aug 19 (cont) six fish in the pocket below Shannon pool.
Watched a gosband chase a crow in wild flight but
the crow got away.
Grizzly at wolf tracks on sandbar at Delt Hole.
Sockeye salmon are spawning in little run back of the
bar -- bright red with green heads.
Aug 20, 1978.
I caught a silver salmon (coho) of about 5 lbs. in
AD. After lunch Darryl flew me up Kincaid River
which enter clean from the north. Chum salmon
were spawning in riffles. Saw over 50 bald eagles.
Darryl hunts grizzlies here as we stopped to inspect
his hunting cabin. Grizzly tracks at more tracks
on bars, as a bear had been rubbing its back on
the cabin.
Aug 21
I caught a small steelhead about 5 lbs. Darryl
hooked < monster chinook and deliberately broke it
off. Lots of mergansers on the river, some of them
flightless (young I presume). Bucher of sock up to 30.
Darryl saw < gosband chasing a crow in same
area where I saw it two days ago.
Big chinook salmon are spawning in gravel
runs right out in main stream. They look like
submarines moving out of the way of our boat.
