So Chaz and I have been wanting to do this for a few years now and finally had a weather window and schedules that allowed it. We pointed both boats east and ran to the shelf. I pulled the throttles back and started looking 55miles east of town, 44miles east of Cape Chiniak and the closest...
How do you guys and gals feel about upping the king salmon bycatch limits for the trawlers? I just got word of this link below, and found out it's on the NPMFC table right now. Seeing how the entire SE fishery is mostly shutdown, how can they even possibly be talking about this...
