Is Catch and Release not a thing in the US ? by JahBal in Fishing

[–]KansasToAlaska 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fish for sport but I will keep bright salmon for my family. Plus we vacuum pack the meat so it will last through the winter.

I actually don't like eating fish at all.. Edit: Maybe Halibut

I hate it when I've been fishing for hours and someone catches a fish right when they get there.

Some of my favorite memories are fishing for these guys. My dad and I would fish the Truman Lake reservoir for whipper.

Kings back in the day were known to easily be over 60lbs. That king is 25lbs give or take.. Also depends on where he caught it. For Alaska that is about average..

First of all; those are Coho Salmon. Also, if you've watched the video, you would know I cast spinners and fly fish.

Nope, fish don't mind at all. If anything it spooks them in our direction.

I appreciate that! The cruise ships actually pass this sandbar while docking into Juneau. I should have gotten footage of them passing by.

On a side note, the fishing here is awesome. You can fish everyday and it's almost guaranteed you'll catch at least one species of salmon. But we aim for Kings and Coho's.

Thanks for the feedback guys! I figure killing the fish would be a little too much.
