Title

Representative Les AuCoin catches a steelhead trout

Description

Representative Les AuCoin smiles with a steelhead trout, standing by the Deschutes River in Oregon. In typed notes about the image, Les AuCoin writes: "On the Deschutes River north of Madras, on a perfect October day, a steelhead trout makes itself a gift to me. It was the first time I had hooked one of these iconic seagoing creatures. A keepsake memory. In the early nineties, shortly after I had left Congress." Based on this note, the photo was probably taken between 1992 and 1995. This is one of a collection of digitized objects from the Les AuCoin Papers (MS.147) at the Pacific University Archives. The original photo remains with the AuCoin family.
