Hello from Alaska

Howdy folks.

Kenai_guy from, you guessed it, Kenai Alaska.  I'm a member of NWKA and fish quite a bit in the salt & fresh waters up here in AK for halibut, salmon, and anything else that will bite and taste good on the dinner table.

Looking to dust off my ol speargun and try it out on some critters up here in AK, so I thought I might be able to dig around on this site here for spearfishing and yak fishing tips and tricks.

Thanks in advance for any info.

Andy

Welcome to NCKA Andy

Welcome Andy! Make sure to share the fish porn. We all share our porn here

I'm so stoked to see some AK representation here now.

Only lived there a few summers, but they were formative. Caught my first kayak salmon there, and saw my first PacHali too.

welcome & we look forward to future reports!

Welcome Andy!!!

 

Sincerely,

Jim

 

One of these days i'm gonna get up there! Welcome to the group

Welcome and tight lines Andy!  We love hearing anything about Alaska down here!

Welcome!

You ever watch the show Buying Alaska?  are those prices, listings, and remodel expectations BS? 

Welcome Andy, if you want to spear in Alaska, the best thing to do is find divers there.  I've traded some emails with Howard Teas. He has been very helpful and open to helping new divers. 

I'll throw out the only dive contact I know anywhere close to the Kenai: Mike Bender of Lazy Otter Charters. He's based out of Whittier, up near Portage.
I know he does a lot of photography and does wall dives in the fjord there.

good luck & keep us posted.

If you ever get over around Petersburg let me know.  I have a good friend there that dives quite a bit with his wife.  They've got a super nice ocean boat as well that's more than capable of mothership trips for several kayaks.  I'm pretty sure he's got a guiding license there now.

Spearboard might be a better place to get info on spearfishing Alaska
Here is a thread you may find some interesting info
