Salmon Chaser Posted June 28, 2008 Posted June 28, 2008 Heading for Prince of Wales (Craig) Alaska two weeks from today. The wife choose this place for our 10 year anniversary. Will post pics when we get back. Monster Kings (50+) ling cod and halibut and those airborne silvers man I cannot wait.....
1mainiac Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 If you get south of Craig there is a little village called Hydaburg my uncle lives there he said fishing is ok right now but not as many Salmon as he would like to see. My sonlives in Anchorage he had a good Halibut trip 3 days ago. He fished the river last 2 days and got skunked both days was just on the phone with him a hour ago. DNR has closed several rivers to fishing due to low numbers he said he hopes the Silver run is better. His buddy did however foul hook a 45lb King that made for a great fight before they released it. So even poor fishing up there is pretty darn good, have a great trip and send pics forthose of us who can't afford to go.Tight Lines
Mark Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 I just got back last week and the big salmon runs have yet to happen. It is still spring like conditions up there with a lot of snow in the mountains. We ran into some reds on the opener but not many kings. Halibut fishing was good and will probably continue to be. Have a great time in an incredible place!!!
