​SALMON SURVIVOR 
Middle Grade Adventure By Christian Shane

Twelve-Year-Old Jack attempts to catch the Alaskan “Salmon Slam”
After the death of his father and fishing partner, twelve-year old Jack Cooper unwillingly travels with his mom from Pennsylvania to Alaska to meet his grandfather, Fly Bob, for the first time. Over the summer, Jack challenges himself to do something his father ‘Redds’ Cooper had never accomplished. He attempts to catch the Alaskan Salmon Slam, all five species of Pacific salmon in one summer.
 
While chasing after the Red, the Chum, the Pink, the Silver and the elusive King, he’ll need the assistance of his so-called grandfather and veteran fishing guide, Fly Bob, to teach him the secrets of fishing for salmon in Alaska.
 
As Redds used to say, “It’s not called catchin’, it’s called fishin’.”  Nothing comes easy, especially in Alaska.


“Be at the right place at the right time, with the right fly, the right techniques, and the right attitude…and you’ll be a fine fisherman.” John “Redds” Cooper, SALMON SURVIVOR
