The Mighty Yokanga Salmon

 The Mighty Yokanga Salmon
The Yokanga River is the latest of the Kola rivers to be opened to western fishermen. It is
located on the northeastern edge of the Kola about 175 miles from Murmansk, where it
empties into the Barents Sea. These waters are home to some of the largest Atlantic
salmon on the Kola, and provide a challenging environment in which to fish. Fishing Statistics:
