Janet (far right) and some of the crew of 5 North at Providence Hospital show off their catch of the day 
out of Seward, Alaska

While they went fishing for Halibut, Janet wound up with a Salmon Shark and an "Irish Lord" - good going Janet ! Not the best of eating!!  However, they were fortunate the other nurses had better luck fishing. Get a load of that 100 lb. halibut on the left! That was Barb's catch (2nd from the left, in back).

Read  more about women in Alaska's history. Check out some of the delicious halibut recipes they used for all that halibut
