We're fresh off our first week at the Skeena Camp, and what a week it was! We had repeat guest Edgardo from Brazil join us again following an epic trip in October/November 2011 that saw him land several large Steelhead, including 22 and 24 lb fish, in the same day! This time, he brought his brother Alejandro and several friends from Brazil and Argentina, and as you can tell from the smiles on their faces, they thoroughly enjoyed their trip at the Skeena Camp! Looking for good fishing in a remote location, we sited the camp several kilometres downstream below Terrace, complete with a postcard perfect vista. Here's some of the highlights from Week 1. All photos by Edgardo Postigo and Roberto Germano.

| The Skeena Camp, proper. |
 |
| One of my absolute favourites at the camp - tying the 'fly du jour,' right in front of the river. Here, the dining/cook tent is in the background. |

 |
| Put almost any pink fly on, and you'll catch just about as many Pink Salmon as you'd want! |
 |
| The Skeena has some absolute monster Chums, including this mid 20s fish. While not numerous in the Skeena, they do make for good sport when targeting Steelhead, Coho and other Salmon species. |
 |
| Salmon cooked on the banks of the Skeena doesn't get much fresher than this! |
 |
| A great action shot - Edgardo on the rod, and camp guide Al Ducros on the net. |
 |
| Chrome fish, epic scenery. |
 |
| Roberto with a monster 'humpy,' called this for obvious reasons! |

| Did I mention the scenery is nice? |
