Did you just dip that bear in the river to keep it cool ? Nice video Temple, I enjoyed that.

Yea ,no problem, those big kings can sure wreck chum gear when they want . If you watched my king fishing video I was also using chum gear, and had another break through, and had itself buried up to the dorsal fin in what was 5"7/8 mesh.

Have gotten them in sockeye gear, here. Usually rolled up. Now seals can make a mess of a net!

I had coolers of ice for the meat, and a trash bag to cool the hide in the river.

AV, seals always seemed tame compared to sea lions! When I fished SW, the seals would suck the roe, get full and move on. But the dang sea lions would tear the fish from the net to eat them, then when full they'd rip them out for fun.


Rumors of my assimilation have been greatly exaggerated.

Awesome price crushes the 3 a pound we were getting in Dry Bay outside of Yakutat. I managed to catch 18 even with the mesh restrictions though. Trying to figure a way to trap out there in the near future saw tons of sign, but stuck teaching till then. Hope everyone had as good a summer as we did in our cabin and has a good moose season!

Hope everyone has had a great summer. Fall is starting to show up slowly. Son Castner Got to have birthday #3 up at hunting camp. We did pretty well on the 40mile opening. The kids had a blast and were quite entertaining to watch in between glassing/shooting/field dressing. Can’t beat time in the field with you kids.
Getting the bou cut up before heading after sheep in a couple days.
