I think of this trip daily. Got rounds loaded and trigger time done. Been watching the camo thread closely. I've saved some cash so need to invest in good jacket and pants. Rain is a for sure up there. I'm open to suggestions. I'm 6 foot 1 and about 240.One word... Hefty.

Just found this thread... I'd advise that your strategy doesn't fall into the "good etiquette" category...

Lots of hunting, fishing, and mid-level shenanigans.

It is going to be a blast.

3boys, that picture looks like IslandView. I go up there once or twice a year. Great place.Sure is. Love that place. This year I even invited a crusty commercial fisherman over for dinner. :brew:

I’ve always wanted to set up shop at one of the Forrest service cabins with a skiff for a week and get after it.

Awesome place. What’s your general mode of transport up there going to be? (I.e. boat, plane, or road system?)
I’ve always wanted to set up shop at one of the Forrest service cabins with a skiff for a week and get after it.
We're going to base off of my 47' mobile cabin and beach hunt with the skiff. While we're on shore making meat, I'll have my subsistence halibut set and/or 10 pot prawn string soaking. Or our black cod set, or... And after we get back to town, we'll be cutting, processing and flash freezing the bounty for at least 24 straight hours.
Poor H20. He thinks he's coming up for a vacation... I'll guarantee he's going to need a vacation after I'm done with him :chuckle:

That sounds like a lot of work but for us guys that don't have to do it everyday it sounds like a blast too! The best vacations require a vacation to recover anyway. I'm jealous of you guys have fun!

Pro tip: bring your gun with you when you go to set your targets. You never know when an 8' brown bear will appear out of the brush. :yike:

Getting 3 tons of ice right now. If H20 can't get enough venison, ling, yelloweye and halibut to make use of it, he's gonna be shoveling on his last day with me to earn his ride back to the airport.

Couldn’t you just let it melt, then pump it out? :dunno:

In a 33 degree hold, it would take a long time to melt that out. Probably February-ish.Getting 3 tons of ice right now. If H20 can't get enough venison, ling, yelloweye and halibut to make use of it, he's gonna be shoveling on his last day with me to earn his ride back to the airport.

As soon as the fun and games are over, I need to get back to work with a scrubbed and sterilized hold. Just part of the deal. It really doesn't take that long to shovel it out, as long as you have the technique down.
