Sheefish

Anglers who successfully locate, hook, and land sheefish usually accomplish the feat using stout 12- and 15-pound spinning gear cast into deep, moderate-flowing rivers, and retrieved deep along a graveled stream bottom.

I've been fortunate to taste a wide variety of fish from around the globe, and one whose flavor always makes my mouth water is the sheefish.

Furthermore, sheefish in the Kuskokwim drainage come and go unpredictably, which meant we might be casting to fish that were actually hundreds of miles away.
