Sewage spill in Alaska

It's about that time for my return to Alaska...Some of you may remember that I won the Marina Del Rey Halibut Derby this year on my PA. Top prize...Trip to Sitka Point Charters in Alaska. I'm all set to go here, trip leaves in a few days. Hopefully the Salmon and Halibut want to bite for me when I get there. But before I go...I think I'll ice a few more fish before I go this weekend.

Damn! What type of cooler do you use?! Those yellows have been on ice for at least 610 days!

This is obviously not a fish report. Thanks for pointing that out Detective!

I was fishing Sitka a week and a half ago.

(My mom was born and raised there).

Silvers were already showing up when I was there. Kings should be a little slower now, and the commercial season opened July 1. (Non-res king limit bumped down from 2/day to 1/day, but still 6 a day on silvers, and 1/day on guided halibut).

Tight lines.

Very cool! Hopefully the salmon want to bite for me...I wanna get done on those asap so we can screw around with the other stuff. Hopefully I catch some good ones. How big was that King?

It was big enough to keep and then some. We weren't measuring or weighing, but I would guess roughly 20-25lb class.

The salmon is the most sporting of the fishing. For (Pacific) Halibut, you are anchoring up and dropping down deep with big smelly baits on big circle hooks with heavy weights. And then grinding them up once they are hooked.

There are reverse slot size limits on Halibut and Lings, so you either go after fish that aren't that big, or you go after trophy fish. The only Ling we've ever kept was because my uncle is a resident and wasn't subject to the slot limit. We've caught decent halibut, but they've got to be less than 43" or over 80".

Here's one of the better ones from this year:

It's hard to beat beer battered alaskan halibut. Hope you slay 'em.
