What do you mean by that? I'm personally only aware of the Bristol Bay communities. Out there, the communities might not exist if it weren't for the fishery.
Hey Matt, who was captain while they were tendering? It was Neil while we were out for halibut? One thing I remberer is right when you are about to walk up the stairs there was a pic or maybey a few of monster sized king crab being stretched out.That was first boat I was ever on ocean in .Left out of Homer jn a small craft advisory.Got sick as shit first night.Think I turned green......True green horn.Wasnt to bad after first night.

Eddie Sr. runs it for tendering. Honestly couldn't tell you what pics were there. All I remember is getting a nice hot shower, washing my clothes, and eating a shit ton. Then just sat up in the wheelhouse bullshitting with Eddie Sr. and Jr. as they took their wheel watch turns.
I was drunk, what I meant was it was going to kill the fishery. Hard to get a limit dip netting anymore, I blame the fishing industry. Running nets just off shore...pisses me off. Literally taking food off my families table for a few dollars.
Hey Giles , what river did u dil net? never did it... but always looked fun..I mostly used vibrex spinners on kings then would take the roe and put cure on them then use those eggs later to slay silvers and char. So much fun catching those kings. fight them for ever as they head down river.. then they turn around and seem to try to head back to ocean . most of them i caught were not far from mouth of anchor river ...so clean . miss those days
Best eating smoked. The fight on a king is something else. That fish doesn’t seem to care what you want it to do

This thread has taken quite a different turn, lol. Giles, I understand that. I know those areas on the road system get a lot more pressure. I can tell you though, the way they manage the Bristol Bay region, I doubt you could claim the sport fishery is hurting. Well, you could claim it, but I'm not sure it would be accurate!
