They know where to go! They know where the seasonal hot spots are and how to safely get you there.

Alaska Fishing Report 05/15/11

The day started at 530 am with 3 anglers on the Little Susitna River Launch.
We started fishing at 6 am and a few hours into the trip one of anglers hooked onto a  King Salmon but was lost after about 15 seconds.
An hour later, our second angler hooked onto a King Salmon and fought it for about 10 minutes.
It circled the boat twice and ran up and down the river a few times.
Right when we got it to the boat, it spit the hook, but not before we all got to see it.
It looked like a 25-28 pound hen.
We know now the fish are starting to show and are slowly moving into the Little Susitna River 
down at Point Mackenzie.
Hopefully this is a good sign for a decent run this year.
