They are in it for the long game with all that stainless!


I love the smell of burning spruce---I love the sound of a spring time goose---I love the feel of 40 below---from my trapline I will never go!

Thanks for posting, I enjoy the pictures.
Are the fish cleaned on your boat? Or are they just packed on ice?

Good pictures and thanks for the updates on what’s happening in the bay. Anybody posting solid price yet? I’m hearing Cook Inlet 1.50. Spent one season on a tender there. We were cash buyers for a few days. Got to hold 200K in my hands a few times : )

The days of cash buyers were definitely something else, my wife tells me stories of quarter Million dropped to tenders from a helo .
No prices yet heard
Bet they will wait to where the harvest is in to get inventory and investors together [Linked Image]

Cash buyers were great the company didn’t like it much when we went to them so we would sneak up to them on foggy days

Seems the Copper River this year is having a great King run. Dip netters at Chitina seem to be doing well and my brother said when he was down there they were catching more kings than reds and had to turn them all back as they had their limit. Sizes seem to be good as well. Might be the only river this year having a good King run.
