Alaskan Fly-In Fishing Trip

It was a sunny, crisp October morning when I got a call from some friends saying that they wanted me to fly them into a special fishing camp in Klawock Alaska. Of course I agreed...

I packed up the DHC3-TTC Super Otter and off we went
Image

After a quick 30 minute flight we arrived at Klawock Fishing Camp. Its just a small lake but it has stream access to the bigger lakes so its a great location.
Image

On approach, the owners of the fishing camp came out and snapped some pictures...
Image

While taxiing to the dock we could see the fish jumpin' all around us! The guys were VERY antsy to get out there...
Image

After unloading all the cargo, I headed back to base. I so wanted to stay and do some fishing but I had too many other customers waiting to get shipped around.
Image

Upon leaving the lake I realized that, yes...I would have loved to stay and try to catch a big one...but I am much happier up here enjoying the sites...
Image

Lined up for final and I can see my next group waiting anxiously to get going.
