- While fishing in Alaska off the Mist Cove two fly fishermen with a guide from the ship walked up on a sow brown bear with two cubs. They followed them back down the stream to where we were fishing, getting uncomfortably close.2010 Linda Garrison, licensed to About.com

- I caught this Alaska Pink Salmon on a fly rod on my 60th birthday while fishing in Alaska off the Mist Cove. It was my first salmon on a fly rod - a great way to celebrate my birthday.2010 Linda Garrison, licensed to About.com
