Hope to meet you someday.

Joe,
Yes, I am still fishing in SE Alaska. We troll salmon on the I Gotta. My youngest son, Karl, has a freezer troller and trolls salmon and has an aluminum fabrication business. My oldest son, Kris, fishes part of every summer with me or Karl.
We are in Sitka, and in the phone book, give us a call when you get by this way. I just read a couple of chapters last week as I was at the Sitka local food network bazaar. Really sad how they struggled to get a bite some years. I am sure that dad had problems with the electrical field on the Nohusit. Wish I could reach back in time and give him a hand.

I definetely will try and come to Sitka and visit. I have been in the retail and sales business all my life seems like and I am fed up with the public. I have been fishing (Sportfishing) in AK several times and in Sitka twice. BUt for the last 30 years I have been best friends with a guy who fished out of Petersburg for years and another friend that still does. I am sick of hearing the stories and want to live them for a short period of time and hopefully get hooked for good. Stories like your Mom and Dads were great! Your pictures are extraordinary!! Thnaks for sharing.

Joe,
Thank you so much, I love these type of feedback. I get plenty of comments about how people wish I would keep my mouth shut and my fingers clenched.

Come on up and enjoy the country and the fishery. It is a great ride.

I thought some of you might enjoy this picture of my friend Jim Moore coming around Pt. Amelia the other evening.

I know what an effort it is to get them posted and that's a nice picture. That lense has to be one piece of equipment that has the highest non-monetary return and we are grateful you've got it. Thanks for sharing that and for the others as well.
