Yeah, you gotta go out for those Kings.

I loved fishing Silvers from the Eyak river and lake....

WassilaBoy has a thing for Silvers, too. I really like Halibut, Albies and Wahoo. Steelies ain't too shabby.

It's really a toss up between our southern cousin of the Pacific Halibut and the California White Sea Bass (a croaker) for me.
Fresh Albacore is nothing like that stuff in the cans.

Q: Why did the old man go deep sea fishing?


A: Just for the Halibut.

Halibut seems to be the butt of more than one joke.

Q: Why did the vegan go deep-sea fishing?

A: Just for the halibut!

I used to go to Alaska for 3 weeks at a time for several years back in the late '80's and had the pleasure of fishing for King Salmon on the Kenai river out of Soldotna (my girlfriend at the time had a family friend with a camp on the shores of the Kenai).

The Kenai has the biggest kings in the world (and was the source of the 97# world record). One year, I caught a 45 pounder and a 60 pounder on the Saturday and Sunday of a weekend in early July and that filled my limit for that year (you can only keep 2 Kings out of the Kenai per year, unless it's changed).
