Great Alaska trip!!!
« on: September 15, 2020, 01:39:08 PM »
Got back from another week in South East Alaska.  Fishing was great!  The five of us landed 17 halibut total.  A 7 foot 325 pounder, 6 foot 9 inch 255 pounder, a 200 pounder,  four more between 150-175 pounds each, and a bunch of 30-80 pounders.  Lots of big Lings with two pushing 50 pounds and a lot more bottom fish and sea bass.  Freezer is full for sure and hunting season is just around the corner.  ill try to post some pictures if I can.  For refrence, Im 6 foot 8 inches tall and in the straw hat.

Good grief! That’s an awesome trip. Guide service or self guided? I bet those big slabs of plywood were fun to pull up.

Just went with a friend that owns a boat.  He lives up there about 10 weeks a year and owns a house out on the end of Prince of Whales Island.  Third year in a row for us to go up and fish with him.  No guides involved.
