I explore the harbor and rivers in Seward, Alaska and then travel north to Cooper Landing, where I fish the Kenai River valley for sockeye salmon. We stay at historic Gwin's Lodge across the road from the Kenai River, where Brown Bears have been searching the river bank for salmon.
Thanks for watching!

If all we had to do, is watch brown bear and sea otters all day...this world would be a better place. Great fun in Alaska. Happy for you Shawn. You earned it. And earn it still. I thank you Shawn. Spreading the word...to watch both of the RU-vid channels. Love them here in Wisconsin.

SO AWESOME SHAWN !!!!! YOU ARE a GRAND MENTOR for the young boys thats fighting their way through this troubled time in their life 😢 Some are without a father or grandfather to let them know that they are WORTHY and can enjoy hard work and the more simple things in life . ITS A HARD LESSON THAT MONEY CAN'T BUY HAPPINESS 💞💞💞💞

Being an early riser has its benefits, such as exploring the town, harbor and rushing streams, while the rest of the populace is asleep. When you were exploring the shallow river with all the sandbars, I kept expecting to see a bear pop out of the brush for an early morning breakfast of salmon. Beauty of a salmon, all red in preparation for fertilizing the next generation, and then death. All in the scheme of life in nature at its rawest. I did notice that the guide carried a short barreled brush rifle, following the narrow paths where bears roam at will. Stay safe.

My parents used to always rent cabins in Colorado. Many a morning I could remember getting up and before the trip to the outhouse I'd see my parents already fishing. About 8 A M my mom would come back to the cabin and fire up the wood cook stove and prepare breakfast. She even baked a cake in its oven once. Really brings back fond memories. Your videos of Alaska brought all that back. I got to get up there sometime. I never saw all that wildlife in Colorado. Not even a half as much. Next year... Take care and be safe. Vaughn

Who can sleep when my ears would be peeled for brown bears lurking about. Geese! My son just got back from a week in Alaska fishing. He said the bears didn't get him, and he caught a bunch of fish! Fun!

Holy cow. I've been watching my self-reliance for a while and just found this channel. I was working at Gwin's when you visited and distinctly remember you.

Most bears don't attack unless you surprise them or they have cubs. Sometimes Grizzlies may spot you and then circle back and come upon you from the back, if they are hungry. We Alaskans carry guns that will easily kill a grizz or black bear, so no worries. That Kaladi coffee is my favorite. That wasn't all fog. We had many forest fires burning around Alaska this summer. Great video Shawn.

Another great video Shawn. I’m definitely not watching your videos in order . I just found your channel about week or so and I just love coming along on your journeys. The first video I came across of yours you were giving relationship and marriage advice as well as financial. That was about the best advice I’d ever heard. I was hooked after that lol I can’t sleep tonight for some reason so I found myself looking for your videos. What a beautiful place you guys are visiting. I’m a lover of fishing and hunting. Thanks for teaching me so much on your videos. You have a lovely family. Wishing you well from Louisiana

How utterly jaw dropping Sir, to travel along with you on this epic adventure. Applauding your God-given gifts that allow you to share all that nature has to offer and more. I've been salmon fishing when they're heading up stream to spawn but that was in South Island of New Zealand ... the land of my birth. Now I'm enthralled with your Candanian/Alaskan adventures and expeditions from my home in Ipswich, Queensland, Australia; home now for 45 yrs. For someone who will NEVER get to travel again ,let al be explore , your You Tube videos are my constant companion. Looking forward to the rest of your Alaskan Adventures, stay safe and film your heart out Shaun. THANK YOU, your wife(she must be so proud of you & patient) , and these guys you're travelling with... blessings and peace out 😃🇦🇺

Wonderful footage .... yep .... if you can walk there, a bear definitely can. I remember a deep canyon in Utah that I had fished far back into. I ended up going up the wall on a precarious trail at best. Many years later I thought about that "trail" and how me being able to crawl out of the canyon there meant that so could the mountain lions that inhabit that area .... I could imagine one saying to itself .... here comes lunch ~8^) The other thing I discovered was that it starts getting dark earlier down in those narrow places heh heh. Take care .... looking forward to seeing the rest of your adventure.
