Hi all,

Just wanted to drop in a plug here for Bob Gray (no relation) and his Prince of Wales Sportfishing operation out of Craig, AK. Through a wierd set of circumstances, I just got back from my second trip up there this summer and it was awesome. In late June we got into a mess of nice Kings and butts and over this past weekend the Silver fishing was just silly. Robbo even managed to find a beaut of a straggler King at 38lbs.

Bob has been fishing up in AK for the past 25 years, the past 10 as a sportfishing guide, and has the program dialed in. No booger picking here. It's a quick run from Craig to the fishing grounds, unlike some places a little further North, and his 24' Silver Streak is a sweet ride. I'll have a full report in the STS Alaska issue in Feb. and you can also see some of the action in an upcoming Fisherman's Heaven show. The season is winding down this year but if you're considering a trip North next year it's worth checking into.
