With the local rivers teaming with salmon runs we get outdoors for a new fishing challenge. We attempt to catch wild Alaskan Coho salmon using homecured bait. It pays off this trip and we head home with more delicious food for winter.
We appreciate you tagging along for our Alaskan adventure 😀

@davidmiller8823 Год назад

These videos are just a pure delight to watch. Ariel impresses the heck out of me. What a trooper, wading with a strap to pull the boat through shallow water is awesome! My lady of 18 years was just like that. We would hike and fish together, process our venison and clean fish together. She was proud to be my Sous Chef, cutting up all of the vegetables and helping me brine meat and pressure cook. I lost her 7 years ago around Memorial Day and watching Eric and Ariel reminds me of all of those wonderful years with my soul mate Megan.

@@SimpleLivingAlaska We headed to Valdez on Friday night and returned Saturday night. We limited out after fishing for a couple of hours in the morning then a couple more hours in the evening. In the morning the bite was good with lures but had to snag in the evening to get the rest of our limit. Good luck to you both when you head down. Be watching out for your next adventures.

Wow, Eric & Arielle, that’s really the first time I’ve seen such a pronounced hump on a (coho?) salmon. I’ve only seen footage of them as they are very near the end of their journey. I learn something new each time I watch an episode. Thanks for bringing comfort and new knowledge to this old teacher as she approaches 3/4 of a century. I live vicariously through your exploits and love how you approach each new endeavor… Thanks for bringing quality to our lives! Simple Living is a gift! 💞

Hi Suzanne, great observation about the huge hump on the salmon. This is actually a pink salmon, as the adult males will get that hump before they spawn. I hope to go fishing for some here in British Columbia soon. Have a great day!

@susanapplegate9758 2 года назад

Fantastic as always…you using the pinks’ eggs to catch the delicious silvers reminded me of my Alaska-born and raised niece (a firefighter too). She and a friend (young teens at the time) were out hiking and fishing around Hope but didn’t have anything with them to carry their catch. So she stuffed every pocket she had with the pinks eggs to get them home. Still makes me laugh - but she is still quite a woodsman ;)

@mikethefireman6696 2 года назад

The best luck I used to have back in the day for spinning lures was the blue metallic vibram. Worked very well for kings and silvers. I think the blue would kick in their territorial instincts thinking it to be another fish. Fly fishing was usually a purple egg sucking leech. Watching you cure salmon eggs brought back all those memories when I was stationed in Alaska in the 90's and did very much the same thing.
