Hopefully I can get some more pics up later. My dad sent me a cd.

Ate some halibut last night with a crab chowder made from the left over crab we got there too!

Good times, almost in tears I miss Alaska so much.

My wife told me that she is glad we got that out of my system.

She didn't appreciate my hysterical laughter...

Here's a pic of my homemade ghillie suit. Worked pretty well as long as the wind didn't switch on me...

A few pics from fishing in the greatest place on earth.

Nice going!

Man, is it lunchtime yet! That halibut looks pretty good! I bet that is some fine venison with all that great feed for those bucks.
Good to see an "ol' guy" hold up to the test...why to go dad!
See any bears?

Very nicely written. Hey, how bad could it be? You were in Alaska. I only dream of going there one day.

toppredator · September 01, 2010, 07:36:00 PM

Great story and nice looking buck. Nice to be able to share an experience like that with your dad.

great narrative! The weather in AK can be and is often brutul. I have been fishing there 2x and it can rain indefinately. 90 degrees one day and 45 the very next! If you get discouraged by weather, don't go to AK! It is a great and dangerous state. I have never been hunting there, but would like to, so long as I have a couple of weeks...
