With all of the gloom and doom spreading throughout the basins draining across one end of the Gulf of Alaska to the other, I've really been wondering how bad it's affecting streams draining into the Bering Sea on the west side. We all know that the Yukon has fallen on hard times, and the king fishing on the Togiak last year was bad.

Was glad to see this recent post in the Alaska West Facebook blog.

Alaska West marks time today with Friday change day. Mixed emotion day. Not so excited to see good friends go but super stoked to see old and new friends come in with all their excitement and hope for what "their" week on the rivers have in store for them. Friday's are our milestones. Funny to me that time goes by so fast when things are good and so slow when things are not so good. This past week flew by...


Perhaps a glimmer of hope... or just guide-speak?
