What a special place.

Thanks for a GLORY day, Blake!

It's one I'll remember for a mighty LONG time.

Anyone notice the Storm ad in the latest STS?

Throwback Thursday.... with a cautionary note.

I feel blessed to have fished the hallowed waters of the Kanektok when I did. Like so many other premier king salmon streams in the Great Land, the K'tok has literally tanked after only 5 years since my baptismal trip!

2014 saw partial closures of even the native's subsistence fishery. 2015 saw a TOTAL closure of the rec fishery for kings and restrictions on the native fishery. 2016 is poised for more of the same...

You're more familiar with the situation there than I. There must be some hellacious dams, hatcheries, and habitat destruction on that river in order to kill off a run that fast. Harvest alone could never be that much of a problem, could it?

Carcassman,

From what I've read, there are habitat issues (marine survival) in the Bering Sea and bycatch in the pollack harvest. With two potential causes, business is good for the dueling consultants.

But the directed salmon fisheries are held harmless, right?

The Bering Sea pollock trawl nets are a HUGE component of the "unfavorable ocean conditions" those chinook are experiencing.
