Buenos días me encanta el canal y disfruto viendo a una familia trabajando unida y de verdad es un trabajo fuerte Dios los bendiga entre tanto peligro cuídense les escribo desde Puerto Rico y por eso no me imagino yo en ese frío de ustedes
Such a difference in styles of fishing than where I’m from, I definitely enjoy seeing other styles of fishing

It's such a beautiful place, I'd have a hard time leaving too.
Next to Lobster, Salmon are my favourite Ocean creature. Fished Atlantic Salmon (Scotland) seasonal, for many, many years before Farm Salmon and reduced numbers moved us along. Hugely enjoyable and pretty labour intensive like most if not all fishing.Those seals/Lions. so lovable, eh. Watched some of your excellent Halibut Fishery clips, some years ago worked in Canada, where I read/heard that they used 4-10 shotguns to kill/stun the huge Halibut they were trying to get into their punts on Grand Banks et al.
Thanks for sharing. Interesting life skills. Enjoyed.

Thanks AK, yeah the Buskin River is always kind of a scratch fest. Some days you get lucky and a school hits, but most the time its an all-day thing for 10-15 fish, mostly singles and doubles.
Your furry friend would make a nice pair of mittens.
Nice never gets old watching fish hit the net, how many mesh deep gear are you guys allowed?
Like. Good luck for everyday fishing.

great videos ! i love watching them ! but you guys gotta work your net ? run the side that the fish are hitting on ? sometimes they linger along side the the net ? when you run it you scare the fish into the net . run it about 5 or 6 feet away from the net
Sea lions are such a pain. Finally they’ve opened up hunting them in WA, they have been devastating here to the runs.

Hey guys is there a limit as to how many fish you can take . Most off the rivers in Scotland have a return policy on them ,if the fish has swallowed the hook then its encouraged to take the fish for he pot ,great vid ,a different aspect 😎

The streams are managed carefully by Fish and Game, and subsistence, sport and commercial opportunities are adjusted as necessary to insure escapement goals are met. If a river system is struggling to meet the minimum escapement the areas around it are closed.
I fish by seine at chignik lagoon and my first year age 12 any tips chignik is by pilot point
Good job guys I love the look of cooked salmon and the meat but I just can't take the taste

Guys, nice job on the video and catching. I was wondering does anyone ever sport fish troll for Reds? I see guys getting Silvers, Kings, and even Pinks. Don't see much on the Reds and Chums being caught by the trolling method. Doesn't matter to me how a guy catches a fish I am just curious.
@EISAlaska

Hey Mark. I honestly don't know. I have heard of people trolling for reds, but not sure if anyone does it here. We are pretty out of touch with the sport fish world. One day when we have more time we will get back into it.
Back in 77 we ran a gillnet out near where you are before the regular seining season began. We had subsistence licenses and just wanted some fish to eat. We caught 10 or 12 Reds. The mind plays tricks, but in my minds eye the fish we caught seemed bigger...like 10-12 lbs and all almost exactly the same size....those are Reds aren't they?

What's the etiquette for how many nets/ how close? Does it turn into battle fishing? I've walked off the river/ocean before because of knuckleheads rubbing elbows with me to "get their trophy"

Hi stickhillfarm. It depends on your neighbors. Some guys will say drop your net right off their end, others like a little space. That spot only holds about four nets, but 50 foot space is plenty if they are all on the boundary line. If you set perpendicular to the beach then a few hundred feet is probably good. Most guys are pretty laid back, and easy to get along with. Nothing like river fishing.

A job interview, or interview on how the fishery works? We are only fishing for our own food in this video. Certainly not the same as say the Bristol Bay salmon fishery.
do you milk the females of their eggs and the males for the sperm to make more?

10 рыб поймали а сколько бензина потратили. Так за каждой рыбкой гонять никаких денег не хватит, выйдет золотая рыбка. дешевле купить в магазине.
As if you guys really need those to subsist.
So today y'all are catching not fishing still working just the same. Be safe.
