I`m only a Dream the Ferrari guys eat at McDonald's

This is clearly not Stan's first salmon jerky Bar-B-Q...Truly knows his stuff.

Thank you so much for showing us how to cut meat for smoking and drying. I grew up living a subsistence life. My Dad and brothers (all male family memers) hunted. I helped pack meat off mountains, if it was getting late and they needed help packing it out. We all fished. My Dad and Mom cut and fileted the salmon and my brothers cleaned them. Both my folks cut the game, although my brothers were raised to start the process early. My eldest brother went hunting with my dad at a very young age. One of my brothers ate fish eyes that were boiled, so that he could see the fish better when they were gaff fishing. Us girls had our own duties.We did fish, but when it came to gaff fishing our job was getting in the water and walking through the water, hopefully herding the fish towards the place they were supposed to appear. I had seven sublings. My Dad lived until the age if 94 and passed away this year. He was active his entire life and the only thing that slowed him down was when he started Dyalisis in his 90's. We never went hungry, even if we didn't always like what we ate. My Father was Nez Perce, Cayuse and Umatilla, with a tad bit of Scotch thrown in. I enjoy Yukon Men because it's real and I can relate to subsistence living. I love smoked fish. But my parents stopped eating fish that came out of the Columbia River because of the water quality, with all of it's pollutants. When I was growing up we fished in smaller, faster and colder rivers. My Dad grew up gaff fishing at Celilo Falls on the Columbia River until the government put dams in and it flooded the falls. Damn government. Hah! Have a good one Stan and thanks for the trip down memory lane!

Great video Stan , watched you on Yukon men . Leaving the east coast , best gig you ever did . Your where you need to be and like . My pop was from.south jersey which is all like grown together subdivisions , and no hunting hardly allowed there no more . Deer everywhere , 30 miles from philly .im damn glad my dad married a southern gal and told him, he'll no she's not livin up there . So I've grown up swampin , hunting and fishing in Louisiana . Thank god ! I've been to anchorage once , but I sure wish back in my 20s I had come further inland there . I probably would have never left .

"The knife is shop." Love it!

thanks for the video Stan. we love hearing from ya.

Great lessons on fish strips. Few points that make difference between failure and success. Salmon strip heaven in the smoke house

Every situation is different but what we do here can be changed and adapted to other places hopefully.

I Love watching this video ! That fish hanging Always gets my mouth watering. Growing up, my mom`s brother would bring over 10 salmon they got from a stream (nothing like yours of course). Dad would cut them up, mom would always say we`re going to get botulism off them, and can them up. We never did get botulism, but always referred to them as botulism patties. To this day, salmon is still a treat to me.

Thanks, to you Stan! From Texas right before Deer season. Your time to share the in and outs of fish fillet prep for smoking is appreciated. Seen you on TV before, you and your son. Good to see you working and sharing. Salute!!

Thanks Stan. When I clicked on the video and saw you I thought, "hey I know that guy" and knew right away the video would be legit.

I’m happy to find you here sir! I hope you continue making episodes for your YM family out here in the world.

Just got back from one of the few coastal rivers that had an open king season. My friends as well as the other villagers were busy cutting and drying fish for the year. My daughter who teaches in the village cheats and uses an electric smoker. But this is far better. What I grew up with in the PNW. Thanks.

Thank you. You make it really interesting in a very personal way. Brings back nice memories for me. Used to have a place on pamilco river in North Carolina and filleted flounder a certain way for my mother so she could stuff them with crabmeat. Loved doing that.

Wow! I'm just amazed by the landscape.. its looks heaven... hope it feels the same. So happy for you..

Now this type of content, how to do Alaskan stuff, is why I watch Alaskan based shows. Thank you Stan, great video-I subscribed.

It's been decades since I have had good smoked salmon. I lived in the Pacific NW and it was an almost daily thing. There they used alder wood for the smoke but different people had their own specific methods.

So much useful info. Thank you so much, Stan!

Love your dry humor. Thanks for sharing your knowledge

Just found your channel by accident! Very informative. I am in my 40’s and looking to live a lifestyle like yours. I’ll be limited a bit by the regulations here in Canada. I so wish I could move to Alaska. Much easier to live your lifestyle. Thanks again for the videos and please keep them coming. So much knowledge is being lost in today’s society!

Love your vids, Stan. Wish I was there.

So much info! Thanks for taking the time to make an awesome video like this

Wow, i love your smokehouse!!!! Great Video and great place to life!!

After all these years, still have that accent. Coming from MA myself, I can appreciate it although we don't have one from my end of the state. Thoroughly enjoying watching the video. Can't wait to visit your state in September flying out of Boston.

Absolutely beautiful! Well done.

Enjoyed the videos. Always enjoying outdoors life. Thanks.

Nice video again Stan,,,,spring is on it's way

Pretty stoked i found your channel. Miss watching you on discovery.

so beautiful picture and your life looks great! Now , it's time to plunge into that kind of life for me!

Great video I miss fish camp in Alaska fond memories of my time there.

Nice video, love the scenery. Please make more!

I totally love watching this stuff cheers brother

Hey Stan!! Just stumbled upon your KZread channel! Pretty cool and educational. Anyway I can’t believe how much you’ve retained your Massachusetts accent!! I’m in Salisbury Massachusetts and the traffic even up on the North shore is a nightmare and getting worse. Sometimes i wish I lived in Alaska!! Keep pumping out the videos, so far this is the second video I’ve watched and will probably watch them all eventually. Stay warm and safe up there!

Stan Zuray : I subscribed. Watching you process fish is like watching a master chef in the kitchen, and listening to you describe what you are doing makes me miss Yukon Men. I'm looking forward to watching your other uploads. Thank you for this and I wish you good luck with hunting this winter.

17 min , Awesome Stan love the video,Much Aroha from New Zealand.

Thanks Stan, grew up eating this stuff in Dawson, and always wondered how it was made. Now to try and replicate this somehow in my backyard smoker :)

Thumbs up if you would like to have a big bag of salmon strips dried and smoked to eat for the coming year!

I am jealous of how, your family and friends live. I'd love to raise my boys this way

Thanks for the video hope to see more from you

Enjoyed watching how you all do this on the Yukon. We harvest Copper River salmon and have noticed the smaller sizes here as well. I've been told the food source in the ocean are depleted and also the salmon are returning to the rivers in shorter periods now. They are returning after 3 years instead of 4 or 5 years. Don't know if its true but they are most certainly a lot smaller now.

We did a lot of work monitoring the King salmon migration in the middle/upper Yukon. Here's a short story about it from a well known investigative author. Much of what you hear about the causes of the problems with King salmon in our rivers are heavily influenced by people not wanting to admit management failure I believe.www.rapidsresearch.com/The_Fall_of_the_Yukon_King.pdf

Very informative and interesting
