My son's name is Matthew. We named him that because it means, "Gift from God." Your Matt is certainly that for you! Great and very efficient worker! Very much like my own.
These episodes are so incredible to watch! The way families and life should be. Thank you all for these series! Makes us appreciate where food comes from! No work, no food! (Unless you truly need some help!)
That little Kelp Greening you released was cool. When I was young we used to catch them casting from the shore to a small kelp bed, using Grasshoppers!!!😂 We'd take them home and mom would put them in the smoker.
Really nice work. I love to see care taken with the fish to ensure their not beat to pieces on the deck. You can’t believe the number of fishers that get a good quality fish, and then knock the quality down with gaffs, walking on fish, banging gear on them etc.. If I could find a way to purchase your fish I would! Keep up the great work.
Great day of fishing. Luckily you fell into the ice and not the big hole. Been to Alaska a few times in the service loved it now I live in Florida and hate the summers to hot was mid 80s today
Yea probably setting a bad example by not wearing a life jacket. On the Fish Tale I guess we have the confidence but when we go out on our skiff we always wear one.
In Australia we put our fish in the esky to keep them cool...In Alaska you put your fish in the esky to stop them freezing! Tristan did a great job on his string as well.
Lol that's pretty funny, Iain. It's pretty easy this time of year, going into spring we'll toss ice into the totes throughout the day. Yes, he sure did!
Good to see you back out on the water again. Seemed to have been a productive run! That swell sure can mess with an otherwise wonderful day. Hope the approaching gales dont damage things. Stay Safe and Stay Well! -Bob...
I enjoy watching y’all’s trips, my dad was a tugboat captain on the Mississippi River, and a commercial fisherman on his days off, I went with him every chance I could and loved every minute of it, have y’all ever thought of having a contest and giving a lucky person a trip out with yall
Guys, Great job. Looks like you had an amazing trip. T is getting the hang of it too which is great. Nice family business you have there. The way you guys roll through unhooking them fish I would end up hooked in the hand for sure. I normally get it once every other year just charter fishing on Lake Superior. Running through those numbers like that it would be once a trip. Greta job you guys are doing. You should be very proud.
Hi Mark! Yea this was a decent day out, real short and easy to fill our orders. Tristen is doing great, we're proud of him! It definitely takes some practice getting use to not getting hooked, or spined by the rockfish. Always appreciate your comments!
Ya' had some nice stringers . I enjoy watching you fish for the rock fish . It seems like a minimum of effort so I'm sure there are some things ya' just don't show . Alright, let ya' go for now . Take care of you and stay warm
Thank you Steve! When they get going it really is a rush. The scratch fishing is when things get challenging, gotta be patient, try not to run around too much.
Would be a dream of mine to leave Idaho for a season and help you guys out and learn some things about the north pacific. I'll do free work! I just want the time in Alaska with some like minded boys. Ore Washington and nor cal have lost its appeal to me... time for bigger and better things
Rockfish is delicious! It has maybe a more sweet taste, its a lot easier to cook than halibut and holds together - doesn't tend to flake apart like cod.
We catch Black Sea Base that is familiar to Rock Fish here in The Long Island Sound off Connecticut. A good fight and a good meal to boot. Thanks for the video.
Another great video guys ! love your jigging technique, but was wondering why you dont use a weaker line than the rig/main line to attach the sinker with ? unless what your using there are family heirlooms ;-)
Main reason is that we can usually get them unstuck, a weaker line on the weight would make it easier to recover the setup, but for how often we bottom fish and hang up it would be like losing 5$ a pop. Its something we have considered doing before. Thanks for the comment David.
The rockfish look small, is that normal ? Takes years to get big and spawn. Seems some of those could be put back, but they would die anyway and you don't have time to use a deep water release aid. I'm hungry for rockfish now. Thanks guys, New Sagaya here I come in Anchorage 😋😋😋
These ones are ideal for our market. Yes, there are some deep-water release tools that could come in handy. Rockfish is such good eating! Thanks for tuning in!
We have had a few requests from Canada and are working on getting it set up. If you like you can email me at sales@eisalaska.com and we can add you to our contact list. Thanks Fishin Magician!
I just have to ask , when I hear Kodiak, I think giant Bears ! Are there any close to Town ? Do you ever see any if you're fishing close to the Beach ?
Hi Tracy. We see them along the beach and hillsides occasionally when out fishing. They also come into town looking for food and come through our yard once in awhile. Here is one we caught on camera last year. twitter.com/EISAlaska/status/1359581355638616066/photo/1
What's the difference between Alaska Rock fish and say Chesapeake Bay Rock fish??? I'm wish I could go out with you... When is it the season for each species of fish?

Thanks for taking me along to fish! I'm 76 years old and my health doesn't allow me to do a lot outside. Your family allows me to "dream"!
hell yeah brother
Thanks so much for tuning in Ken, glad we can share our journey and inspire you.
Would be good to sit and chat with you I bet your have some interesting life experiences to tell.
My son's name is Matthew. We named him that because it means, "Gift from God." Your Matt is certainly that for you! Great and very efficient worker! Very much like my own.
wonderful sentiment, agree. GB
I very much agree...such a good son like the brother too...very hard worker...so nice watching whole family working together,mommy so sweet😍
@@rhodorarodriguez1929 Ah, I thought Tristen was probably a son as well. He will make a fine fisher as well!
Thank you very much for the kind words! Brings a smile to my face. :)
Over fishing should get a big fine and go to jail
I love the way you guys work together and the respect you have for one another makes me miss my dad so much thanks again guys love watching you
These episodes are so incredible to watch! The way families and life should be. Thank you all for these series! Makes us appreciate where food comes from! No work, no food! (Unless you truly need some help!)
Nice video. Thanks guys. Glad to see that the dad was ok after the little tumble.
Us too! Caught me off guard.
I'm back watching again! I've been busy in school. Now I can relax fishing with you.
Hi Connie, Welcome Back.
@@EISAlaska Rewatching with some friends...just as enjoyable as the first time....Blessed
That little Kelp Greening you released was cool. When I was young we used to catch them casting from the shore to a small kelp bed, using Grasshoppers!!!😂 We'd take them home and mom would put them in the smoker.
I always enjoy going out with you and watching the catch.
Glad you enjoy it Joseph!

Very true! Glad to share how we handle them. Take care Peter!
I went along with you during your “ black rockfish” commercial fishing trip - awesome…
Thank you!
When and if you ever come out with t shirts - there needs to be one with Matt on it saying "Situational Awareness".
That's a great idea!
Tristan did a fine job, he’s a quick learner.
He is indeed!
The way you catching i respect you guys. Bless you always.
I love the way you guys work together
Great day of fishing. Luckily you fell into the ice and not the big hole. Been to Alaska a few times in the service loved it now I live in Florida and hate the summers to hot was mid 80s today
Texas Gulf Coast...... Share your hate for summer. Man shouldn’t have to endure that.
Love the way your family lnteracts
You are so kind! Thanks Michael.
Looks like a good fishing trip. Thanks again for the help on the reel.
The boat is rocking pretty good and sides only come up to your knees and you don't have a life jacket on. You guys are making me pucker up!

I love him helping little brother and finishing witha dig and even dad couldn't help but to laugh! Too funny and real. Not scripted..
Good to see you back out on the water again. Seemed to have been a productive run! That swell sure can mess with an otherwise wonderful day. Hope the approaching gales dont damage things. Stay Safe and Stay Well! -Bob...
Right you are, Bob! The swell can really get tiring toward the end of the day, the stabilizer poles help a lot. You stay safe and healthy as well!

I couldn’t stop laughing when Matt told T to practice in the mirror 🤣🤣🤣. All in good fun..
Incredible fishing trip, it is encouraging to see there are fish limits that allows your family preserve a hard work way of life.
Good look
You all work really good together, Nice day of fishing!
Thanks, Campdad! 👍

Looks like jigging is pretty easy job, catch bleed and ice them. Gosh I miss my hometown, seeing the calm ocean and salty air.
Easy at times, I think the waiting is the hardest part. Catching is the easy bit. But gotta love the view.
Hello ... Enjoy with you on the fishing trip .. I wish you success always
Thank you very much, fadi!
I thought you said Kodiak island. You've got to have seen some huge brown bears. My greatest fear . 1 of 3 ways I hope I never die of .
Thank you for your video.
Thanks for watching!
Greatest catching fish on the sea
yes uploaded!!!wtching here in the philippines...god bless in your family...done subscribe!!!
Thanks for subbing!

Glad you like them!
The Off-comments from his brother behind the camera were golden :D
Love this channel
Looks like a good day to me😎👍👍
Good haul guys...nice long video ,feel like I should get 1/2 share for being there in spirit...lol
Great post. You guys get alot of nice weather.
It blew 60 here yesterday with gusts to 80. I think we will go fishing tomorrow.
@@EISAlaska ...dang, now that sounds more like the bay area in N Calif. I've had enough of that
Never fish cursed waters. Great trip guys!
Nice little davit setup
So cold full of snow in your boat keeepsafe voyage
A little bit wavy for me😂 You guys are good at what you do!
Ya' had some nice stringers . I enjoy watching you fish for the rock fish . It seems like a minimum of effort so I'm sure there are some things ya' just don't show .

Thank you Steve! When they get going it really is a rush. The scratch fishing is when things get challenging, gotta be patient, try not to run around too much.
Yep be careful around those rockfish ,I learn the hard way back my days in Alaska in mid 90s working at 🎣 in sand point
It hurts when you get jabbed!
@@EISAlaska yep hurts like hell ,but least you guys get good money for those rockfish,you sell them restaurants probably right
You guys killed it !hope you made some money!love those tote hooks! Great idea!
nice catch guys
Thanks!
Hi I like watching your video guys and I enjoy watching from Taguig City Philippines 👋👋👋
Enjoyed video- first time
Welcome aboard!
Would like to see how you rig the set up for those bloack rockfish ! And see how you keep them from getting all tangled up with the hooks!
Looks like shrimp flies the exact same way rec guys would catch them on a fishing rod.
hi from the UK...LOVE your vids :-)
Hello there! Glad you like them Nebuer!
Thank for sharing this video ♥️your new friend from Malaysia 🇲🇾
Merry Christmas 🎄⛄
Good job
Very awesome fishing video.
Thanks! 👍
Good Job Youn Man
Would love to see catch and cook.. Alaska version.. Fans from Malaysia..
i want all,but im far away,Brazil,these fish the best in the world,black cod
Alaska rockfish !
Hello great video. may i know what kind of bait your using thank u. have a great fishing
Its just pvc tubing on j-hooks. No bait.
I would like to see a close up on how the snaps hook up to the line when you are fishing for flounders
Красавчики!)
The fish won!!!
Would be a dream of mine to leave Idaho for a season and help you guys out and learn some things about the north pacific. I'll do free work! I just want the time in Alaska with some like minded boys. Ore Washington and nor cal have lost its appeal to me... time for bigger and better things
It would be one heck of an adventure. We’d love to invite you for a ride along but its just not in the cards right now. Thanks for you comment James.
Quickly talking myself into ordering fish. Absolutely love halibut and cod. How does rockfish compare?
Rockfish is delicious! It has maybe a more sweet taste, its a lot easier to cook than halibut and holds together - doesn't tend to flake apart like cod.
Love ur video's brother
Great job... More blessings every time you go fishing... Pls tell us what sort of bait you used? Can I order these on amazon? Thanks for the answer..
Hello! They are custom made ez baiter hooks with a chunk of pvc tubing on them.
Cool
Wer here in the UK.. Hope it'll work in the marina. Thanks
We catch Black Sea Base that is familiar to Rock Fish here in The Long Island Sound off Connecticut. A good fight and a good meal to boot. Thanks for the video.
Its great eating! Thanks for watching.
Mashah Allah big fishes
Do you have a weak link in the line above the weight in case you can’t free it from the bottom?
You then only lose the weight.
We've thought about it before, but most times its not only the weight if the edge is steep enough, it'll be a couple hooks as well.
Life is a struggle and work
Good Job
Nice video. What kind of reels do you use for those rockfish.
They are called bandit reels down south.
Another good video
The kelpy would have made a great dinner. I noticed you separating the rockfish is that by size?
I will be ordering from u guys later on 👍👍👍
Awesome thank you Tim! Thanks for your support for our business and channel!
Nice video 👍
What do you use for bait??.I don't see you attaching baits when you throw the lines back into the water.
I see you guys catching a lot of fish but how do you know when you get fish on the line???
What kind of fish you are catch?
Cod pollock?
Nice
Ey guys i love your videos ‼️👌💪👌, when is halibut time?
March the season opens, we usually fish it in the fall.
Would it be worth your while to tie your dropper weight on with a lighter line? So it breaks off rather than requires you too back track?
Weights are another expense and we try to avoid losing gear. We probabally have a 95+% success rate of retriving snagged weights.
@@EISAlaska fair enough, I think I knew the answer you guys see solutions everywhere. Just thinking out loud sorry
Qual isca e anzol vcs usam,onde encontrar esses anzol com minhocas artificial??????? Brazil
how many types of fish do you fish in a season ?
Looks like to me when you are fishing for the rock fish that is a work out keeping up with all those fish
Another great video guys ! love your jigging technique, but was wondering why you dont use a weaker line than the rig/main line to attach the sinker with ? unless what your using there are family heirlooms ;-)

@@EISAlaska Thank you for replying. Agreed, expendable sinkers are only viable if there's a cheap source of scrap lead or iron bar available.
Nice Catch
Thank you very much!

Mantap,,
what kind of boat ur usng guys. the demnsion and motor etc. thaks
I never did like ice fishing. It always took too long to chop a hole in the ice to put the boat in
Hey guys I live in BC and would love to order some Halibut but I am pretty sure you cannot deliver to Canada correct? I live in southern BC
We have had a few requests from Canada and are working on getting it set up. If you like you can email me at sales@eisalaska.com and we can add you to our contact list. Thanks Fishin Magician!
Do you know what's the limit for blacks in that area for a rec fisherman? Do you guys commercial fish for lingcod also?
We don't keep up on the regs for recreational fishing unfortunately, Ty. Lingcod we can keep as bycatch in lengths of 35"> after July.
I just have to ask , when I hear Kodiak, I think giant Bears ! Are there any close to Town ? Do you ever see any if you're fishing close to the Beach ?
Hi Tracy. We see them along the beach and hillsides occasionally when out fishing. They also come into town looking for food and come through our yard once in awhile. Here is one we caught on camera last year. twitter.com/EISAlaska/status/1359581355638616066/photo/1
Is it usually the last weight that gets snagged?
Yea most times, if the edge is tall it'll be probably a few hooks as well, those are the tough one to get un-snagged.
So you go shallower for Rock Fish then for Cod I assume?
Mostly the different sea bottom, rockfish are on hard and rocky, while cod prefer gravel and sandy.
What's the difference between Alaska Rock fish and say Chesapeake Bay Rock fish??? I'm wish I could go out with you... When is it the season for each species of fish?
Fishing enjoy in the Wold .
