Dick, Jerman, Bob, and Russ have fished with AU for 15 seasons and even after all those trips, they still experienced something new. The trip began with the long scenic drive to Hoonah Sound. This route takes a right turn at Icy Queen and follows the ferry track towards Juneau. Weaving through islands and strong rapids, it’s untouched…
The Kennedy party began their trip at the Cape with Captain Chuck and Captain Tom. They bounced around from the gravel to the hourglass to deep west structure to locate their salmon. Although they found silvers at each spot, the bite slowed down, so Chuck took his group halibut fishing offshore to change the energy. They…
Captain DJ and the McCoys just wrapped up a four-day trip where they fished as far north as Emmons Island and as far south as Biorka – covering a wide range of water in their pursuit for their favorite Sitka fish. Their trip started with days to the north to avoid rough seas from a southerly wind. Sheltered in…
As this amazing run of trophy kings continues to roll, the Crisman party made sure to leave their mark. Fishing in calm water to the North for the majority of their trip, they enjoyed the new scenery, wildlife, and of course the fishing. With the open ocean building to tall swells, most of the fleet ran…
During the last week, our anglers experienced the best trophy king fishing in recent memory! The Daggs party fished with Captain Ryan and Bryan to kick off trophy week. The men on Ryan’s boat caught king limits two of their three days. Two of those fish were 30-plus pounds – each caught by Irving Mathews.…
The last three days of fishing have been full of big catches. The first day of fishing for the Bullis party with Captain Bo was a memorable one. They went to a spot west of the gravel that has been extremely “sharky” lately. Many anglers have experienced heavy bites, only to reel up frayed leaders…
During their trip, the Nechiporenko party of ten anglers caught big kings, lots of cohos, and witnessed rarely seen wildlife while fishing with Captain Chuck and Captain Spencer. With each passing day, the fishing ramped up with near limits of everything on day three. The weather was a mix of rain and sun, but that…
The McClean party of 12 anglers filled three boats at the end of June. Captain David fished with Blake Bethards, Bill Bethards, Al Kitchel, and Jason Kitchel. In search of their kings, they began each day to the north. They stopped at the Shark Hole, Point Amelia, and the Parking Lot. Each spot had kings, but the action…
Longtime AU anglers Greg Pepin and Bart Nelson returned for another amazing late June trip with family and friends. The two groups fished with Captain Bo and Bryan and couldn’t have started their trip with better fishing. The first day of their trip was also the first day of the year we saw limits of silvers.…
The past three days encapsulated everything late June is supposed to be. Aboard Captain Spencer’s boat, the Olsen’s found limits of kings each day, with some days being exceptionally fast. Schools of kings swam under their boat resulting in double and triple hook-ups. The group caught their fish and had numerous opportunities for catch and release.…
