  • Four months of every year I move to fish camp on the Yukon River 730 miles upriver of the mouth and Bering Sea and 40 miles upriver of my home village of Tanana. Day to day life is often the same unless interrupted by minor flooding and drift logs hitting the fish wheels and nets, or lack of fish and a fish closure being instituted by the fish managers. Guess there are dozens of other things that can happen also but this video is about as day to day as it gets. Best to you, Stan

    Hello Stan. I've seen you many times on TV or RUclips but found your book. I snatched up the book because I recognised your name. At first I thought your writings were going to be long, now as I get nearly to the end, it's not long enough and will hate to finish it. Besides the great story, man you've been through some tough times, you also have taught me lessons of value. May I add, you wouldn't have liked Viet Nam anyhow so good on you.

      Never got the official word but think it was just to expensive anymore as the TV world changed to having less and less viewers. Even with our new road it is closed most of the time so we are still pretty remote and travel costs high.

    Hey Stan. We've talked a bit before. I used to build those Alweld boats. At the first of your video, you showed the front deck of your boat. It made me remember how the decks on those "Alaska boats"( that's what we called them) were made in 2 pieces, instead of a single piece of metal bent down for the bulkhead like the smaller boats. It's because the deck is wider than the metal we used. The aluminum came on big coils that were 5 feet wide. So the deck and blkhd wouldn't fit as one piece on the raw metal. Just a little useless information this morning. Lol. 👍

It's sad what those PETA folks do not understanding the necessity of trapping in areas such as yours. I'm happy to hear Charlie is doing OK. I know he didn't like the harm that new road would bring to Tanana. Take Care and All the Best for a Good Fishing season!

      You could call summer June July and August. I've seen ice in river late in May and end of Sept. so would not call those summer months. Summer temps can easily be 100 degrees in the sun and 70 in shade on the warmer days.
