Spring is coming fast to Southeast Alaska. I have already heard of king salmon catches. Elias (10-year-old fisher) and my son, Owen (11-year-old netter) caught this 20 pound-plus king salmon during our annual May visit to our friend’s lodge at Funter Bay. As the adults cheered and shouted advice from the front deck of the guest house (Image 2301 and 2106), the youngsters hauled in this salmon 50 feet in front of us from a 12-foot skiff. Camera: Nikon F5, Lens: 35-70mm f/2.8 Nikkor, Film: 35mm Fuji Velvia. -Mark Kelley
