The hear-say said silvers are in the waters...
...but my line says only pinks are in the water.
We took a whirl wind trip to Valdez because I heard from the hatchery that the silvers are off the dock.
Fishing over by the hatchery, it’s GREAT fun for the kids because all you do is snag. Yes that is okay here, in this area.
These are the hooks we used this time⬇️
These are the other kind of lures we use, a vibrax and pixy⬇️
Anyways back to our fishing trip 😊🎣
A kid caught a jelly fish, and we found two more.
We seen a few blackies
Found my first ever salmon berries! Dude! They are HUGE!
Then we seen a deer, our first WILD Alaskan Black Tailed Deer!! It was a little buck with lop sides nubs. I names him Eliot from the movie “Open Season”.
We ended up with 21 fish. All in decent shape, we targeted all females, because A) they come in later and B) the roe for trout bait.
The season is not over, silvers are just late.
Then we have hunting season that’s right around the corner.
Damn, I envy your day.
That looks awesome.
Like seriously, this is most people's idea of a great vacation, and it's like what you do all the time.
I wish I could have stayed longer. It was a great day
Nice! Seems like things are rollin' along well up there. Enjoy the bounty!

I'm a bot. I detect haiku.
Yeah, it’s alright as long as you know where to fish.
A lot of rivers where shut down most of the season. Our Fish & Game are now trying to say that we have hit our encampment goal for the reds on the Kenai. There are pinks, small kings, silvers and chums are running with the reds. There is no way they could tell which is which with sonar. 🤦♀️
We get our fish from a hatchery.
I love Tennessee but I think where you live would be amazing. Its so pretty. Those are some big berries. So neat you can find so many varieties out in the wild.
It was so stoked to find them too! I was gitty!! I had to have a kids help to get so some of them. But it was just so awesome!
What an amazing place!
It really is
Awesome post, always miss Alaska 😢. I was just talking with my wife about going back to AK to visit. But she wants to leave the kids with me and go to AK with her mom and sister. 😭.
Oh man that SUCKS! 😢
Then you should be able to have a guys trip during fishing season. If she complains say you would at least be bringing back fish. Hahaha 😂
Lol. Exactly.
