Sitka Fishing Report 8/23: Endless Summer

Sitka Fishing Report 8/20: Final Stretch

We are in the final stretch of the 2013 season – only two weeks left of fishing. Some of the signs are here, too. The silvers have started to move into the inside locations in larger numbers to spots like Icy Queen, The Shark Hole and Sinitsin. Silvers are still around in good numbers, with…

Gear Review – Shimano Tekota 500 LC

Sitka is a great place to fish – lots of hook ups, lots of big salmon, lots of blistering runs – all great stuff for the fisherman and all very hard on reels. Add saltwater, exposure to the elements, and less experienced anglers who work the reels and themselves much harder than necessary, and you…

Sitka Fishing Report 8/7: It Gets Better

We’ve seen limits of silvers by 7:30 or 8:00 in the morning, lots of kings, and good halibut fishing inshore. The silvers…

What your captain wants you to do – leave the testosterone on shore

Observation: There is no evidence in nature that testosterone enhances intelligence. Witness the big horn sheep banging heads, elk locking horns, the beach master elephant seals bloodying each other. We humans aren’t exempt. The recent spate of TV ads make no suggestion that boosting your low T will make you a better Jeopardy contestant. It’s…

Sitka Fishing Report 8/5: Monotony of the Finest Kind

At the risk of sounding repetitive, the 2013 season continues to amaze one and all who fish with Angling Unlimited. On Thursday the silver bite slowed and got a little more scratchy, which meant that some boats had to fish all day for limits and those that went offshore for halibut may have sacrificed the…
