I just bought my one-way ticket to Alaska. Woo Hoo!!
However, I do have to come back to Portland. I'll be driving back with my son who is finishing grad school at University of Alaska in Fairbanks. We'll be driving from about August 1st to 7th.
We plan to drive the Cassiar Highway route through northern B.C. and I see some river names that sound fishy, like Skeena, Babine, Kispiox. We won't have a lot of time to fish, but we will have flyrods and spinning gear and I'm sure we will wet the lines a few places along the way.
I would greatly appreciate any guidance on places to fish and/or camp along the way without driving too many miles off route. Maybe I can even get my son excited about fishing if he hooks into some good fish. Somehow I failed to pass on the fishing gene. He made two trips to Kamchatka in his volcano studies and didn't even take the flyrod I sent with him to Alaska.
