I've caught a couple nice halibut (~60 pounds) on the west side of Cook Inlet this year. It's as good as always in the inlet. Maybe it's different in southeast? idk. Also seeing lots of kings on harvest tickets when I check people's licenses over the last month or so, from both Kenai and Susitna drainages. So that's nice to see after the last few years. No pics for the thread =( But I spent the last week gorging on big fat lake trout. I will have to take more pictures. Reds are almost to Port Alsworth and Bristol Bay produced over 35 million this year so we should be swimming in them soon. v. excited.

In the vicinity of Chisik Island at the mouth of Tuxedni Bay. I do a fair bit of boat driving for researchers working on the west side coast, so while they're off doing science things I "go anchor the boat in a safer spot, see you guys on the high tide" and drown some herring.

All I loving care about is catching salmon and cutting them up. Good weather and volcanoes are just icing on the cake. https://imgur.com/a/foNqXbc

That is a super cool fly tying setup.

Would send them all the way to England for fish and chips. lol I had a guy work for me once who would pick up bycaught dogfish from the beach and eat them, I wish I was halfway as dedicated to eating fish at all costs as he was

I like the navigation lights on an eight foot dinghy. Take that monster out in the shipping lanes, blow an air horn at a tanker.

That surf perch is a pretty fish.

A Pack of Kobolds posted:I've seen this! I wish the cormorants around here were team players. Have you ever smoked razors? I periodically have access to basically unlimited razor clams and have thought about either hot smoking and vacuum sealing / freezing or lightly smoking and canning some for indefinite shelf stable storage. Not sure if it would dry them out too much though.

I guess I’ll have to try the smoked clams this summer. I think it might work, with really careful smoking. I didn’t know they were selling commercial razors as bait, that’s nuts. Such a prized resource, and though I don’t know anything about crab bait, I assumed crabs are not picky eaters.

I have never fished anything nicer than an ugly stick spinning rod or reddington fly rod. I would be so nervous taking an expensive rod out, regardless of replacement policies.

Extension of the maxillary jaw well beyond the posterior edge of the eye suggests cutthroat trout to me. The caudal fin also looks a little more forked than a classic squared-off rainbow, but that’s not dispositive and it could just be a little scrunched. I’d call it a cutt. Nice trout.
