I'm going Saturday am with my brother in law and my nephew. They are big hunters and need to "get out of the house" according to my sister. Are you going to Alaska for halibut or salmon? I'd love to do that someday. My cousin went last year and stayed on a barge/boat that acted like their floating hotel. They had smaller boats and left from the barge each day fishing. He had a great time.

I got a boga grip, joined pioneer valley surf and boat. Got some stuff rom J and B and also found a guy selling jointed creek chubs from very cheap.

Stop at King Cove and got some bombers.
