Pictures around Town

Subsistence nets below the town bluff.
Talking to a guy today at the grocery store, he said he caught 16 king salmon and three sockeye.
They are coming!

Containers at the dock waiting for the Barge

Explanation of how it all works.

On the side bar is a few tools that you can use to get an idea of what I'm doing. First the Fish and Game announcement feed tells you when we are open for fishing. Fish and Game opens the bay for fishing or closes it to allow escapement of fish to the spawning grounds. If you fish during a closure or are late to pick up your nets the state troopers will take your gear and fine you at least three thousand dollars. Second the tide table link is useful because we usually fish the tide switches or the floods. You can tell almost exactly if we are on the boat or not. Another link that is good is the Dillingham website, it has a harbor cam that you can watch to see if we are in town for the weekend or at the end of the season.
