You’ve heard me point out the comparatively insignificant share of fish taken by Alaska sport fishermen. The graph below proofs my point. The Yukon is historically one of the great King fisheries in Alaska and the world. Sadly it’s doomed. It’s a shame the trawler harvest, which is largely responsible is not accounted for…
Aaargh…. The King is dead…. #captainlarry

Remember the “good old days” when we sport fishermen in Wild Alaska could keep Yelloweye?
“Learned from a longliner friend that the draggers hit the quota on yelloweye last season. Longliners couldn’t sell the yelloweye bycatch and had to give it away. DON’T ORDER ROCKFISH IN RESTAURANTS. It comes from trawler bycatch!” #captainlarry

The sports fishing community in Alaska causes all the problems… 🙄

The good ol days for sure, 2017, One of our favorite pictures from Wild Alaska

We lose a little bit more year after year. Sport fishing is not the problem. If you want to pay for fish book a trip and you’ll have a better quality fish and memories with friends and family.

Saw ADFG News Release about two weeks ago! A SAD situation for sure...

one of my favorite catches

Sure do.
