If my sister, in the security of retirement, with as little opportunity as inclination to do evil, could not avoid censure, we must not rashly condemn those who, living in the world and surrounded with temptations, should be accused of errors which they are known to have the power of committing.
Between June and July, enormous schools of Alaska Silver Salmon enter the fray. During July our Anglers delight in multiple hookups of kings, silvers and halibut - often at the same time! Later in July even more silvers are caught and schools of kings head south to spawn.
Salmon will travel up to 1,900 miles (3,040 km) on the Yukon River to spawn. Alaska has five species of salmon; King, Coho, Sockeye, Chum, and Pink. The Pink Salmon is the smallest of the Pacific salmon. The Chum Salmon is found in California, Canada, Russia, Japan, and Alaska.
