A boat will always keep you busy spending

So now we wait for one to be air gold streak in.
Not hard to swap just getting one

I haven’t bumped into you yet and seasons almost done the boys say it hos getting pretty slow out there then they bumped another 10,000 pounds yesterday or the day before
Subsistence nets did really well for us this year we actually got to freeze some kings 😁 I just don’t care much for reds have been freezing them and silvers the last few years so we will eat good this winter

Our season is over, pump shipped out but tooo late and slow.
Got in just enough days to better than half what I hoped to make.
Well at least something.
Winterizing the boat ,will see what next year brings , obi maybe or see

Weather is somewhat better this summer

Pretty nice right at the moment.
From the front porch in Pilot Point, 5 minutes ago.

That is some flat country you live in Waggler. very nice day indeed.

Ugashik north line about one hour ago. Looks almost tropical.

Sorry to hear your season didn’t go well whoever said tendering was a sure thing definitely didn’t know what they were talking about
If you make it back to DLG next season let me know was a crazy summer for us with grandkids and fish and the family boats kept me running now trying to get all the honey dos done
My son finally made it up this morning taking a day off then may head back out to late fish kinda taking a wait and see attitude I know his ticket back up to the Yukon river is on the 27th so he doesn’t have much time left one way or the other

Where does your son live, Otter? Does he have a Yukon R. gal?

Pulled out today
The end

what ended up being the price for reds this year? I will be in Kodiak Sunday afternoon. Till Monday afternoon.

^^^^^
We still don't really know. I just called my fish company to get a pre settlement advace. They told me that they are a paying 80 cents base.
Hopefully we will get a quick retro, hoping for 20 cents added to base, but won't be surprised if it's only a nickle or so.
I think the overall bay harvest might be a little short of expectations, if so, that may help boost the base a little.

I just checked the preseason harvest forecast.

ADFG were predicting a harvest range from 25 million to 53 million (that's a pretty wide range imo).
The University of Washington was predicting almost 31 million.

I just checked, and to date the total harvest is almost 31 million.

The only district that is still fishing to any degree is Ugashik, they averaged 436 fish per delivery yesterday. I think they are about done there, so the harvest will be 31 million this year.

Silver Bay was 80 cents base plus 30 cents more iced
Kenai I heard open at 2 bucks then fell to 1.80
Still hearing kodiak is slowwww

Martentrapper he is in Alakanuk he married a girl from up there and teaches school so it works well with his summers fishing his permit in the bay
