Monday July 25 - Day 20


Our first catch of 6 for the morning


Thank goodness for muck boots!


Look who's coming for dinner....


Good time to get back by the truck.


He's right beside us now!
 It rained all night long.....I'm ready for the SUN!!!  We took our time this morning, Buddy cooked up some great Bacon Ends from the meat packing plant along with some fried eggs.  We bundled up and headed out for some more fishing.  We caught 6 Pink Salmon this morning, brought them in to be processed, got warm, had lunch and headed back out for some more fun. Well, what an amazing and exciting afternoon of fishing. While we were up to our boots in water trying to pull 6 more fish in for our daily limit we watched 3, yes 3 Bald Eagles fighting right above us and they entertained us for quit a while.  Then someone yells, "BEAR" and we both turn to our left and see the huge brown bear meandering down the rocks and looking for fish carcases to eat.  Then he heads our way.  OK, grab all you stuff, including our five fish and try to slowly and calmly climb up the slippery slim covered rocks.  We made it to the truck and just watched this guy mosey in the water and grab out a fish for his dinner, then he headed back across the street into the forest.  OK, all is clear, as we all go back down to catch one last fish for the night, or maybe two.  Then about in about 15 minutes, we hear, "BEAR IS COMING BACK", guess he wanted seconds.  OK, babe it's time to leave.  Headed back to camp to clean up and grill the Elks steaks for dinner. We have one more full day here tomorrow and will try to get our last limit of fish to send home.  Nite all ;-) PS Just wanted to let everyone know we have not encounter any problems with mosquito's yet....guess we smell to bad.
