Can't say enough good things about this video!!! I think about how isolated and separated a lot of families are these days. So awesome to see a bunch of hard working people all putting positive energy towards a common good.
This was awesome! My late husband and i moved up here in 2015, and dreamed of doing this, unfortunately it didnt happen for him, his health turned bad and he took his heavenly journey in 2020. I am now 69, and to old. I have hoped i would find someone to proxy for me, but that has not happened either. I have had friends gift me some, but, i didnt get the limit. No better way to eat fish than fresh right out of the river. You and your family are blessed.
Sorry to here about your husband wish you guys could have experienced it together. Hopefully you can find someone to proxy for you that has figured it out, I usually watch the fish count and wait for the water to drop from a high level and go mid week. Glad you liked the video
I loved watching the video, and especially relate to the end- My husband and I used to laugh & say it wasn't an adventure until you blew a tire on the trailer 😂😂😂
That spot consistently produces lots of fish at high water. Great job! I love watching this video during winter time when I can reminisce about fishing in the summer.
Thank you for making my bucket list Alaska trip that I'll probably never get to make in my old age God bless you sir and your family and your children that was a beautiful fishing trip once of a lifetime
I love watching Alaskan salmon fishing videos. I was so happy to see the family wearing harnesses. I wish the Dad would have led by example, wearing one also.
Love the way you all work as a team. You got all your fish so quick as well , other channels I watch it took them a couple of days. Respect as always from the uk 👍
Headed salmon fishing my self I will finish watching when I get home take care we wish u good health and happiness! That is how I found your channel looking up dipnetting or smoked salmon can’t remember lol
Awesome video guys and ladies!!! Oh being able to fish for salmon definitely has to be a treat for sure!!! Plus getting to eat them no fresher than being able to catch them and then clean them and then cook them write on shore or even in the mountains just has to be the best ever!!! I definitely no that I absolutely love salmon but living in Iowa they just are no as fresh as you all get to experience!!! Some day we would love to be able to go catch some and do a shore lunch just so that we can get the true flavor of salmon!! Definitely looked like a blast to do also and being able to catch all the fish that you are allowed in under 3 hours has to make it that much more fun also!!! Awesome video once again!!! Remember keep up all the hard work buddy!!!
We don’t dip for sockeye but we do use the other “snagging” method up here - a treble hook. In two extended weekends we can get enough salmon in the freezer for both of us. Plus enough to use as free dog food. AK is a special place to live. It never fails to keep you excited about what’s coming.
Wow what a fishing trip. You got yours so quick. The fillet s look awesome. Oh, why you didn’t save domes of fish parts to take home and cook for the dogs. You cook it until the bones are mushy and the dogs would have a fantastic meal. Just saying. I would love to have some fresh salmon to eat. I order mine from there sometimes and it was delicious. Enjoy you harvest and a job well done to all of you. I’m glad everyone was safe. Love your videos and will keep watching. Bye for now from Central Alabama.
great video - I feel for you guys having to haul all those fish up the hill. Putting them in those dry bags is a great idea. That king was a beauty. Do you guys can them or freeze them?
I cant wait to go salmon fishing when i get up there. I've noticed the amount of fish you caught. Isn't there a limit on salmon? Or is there a special license you can buy to catch more?
@@diyalaskanlifestyle thank you for answering my questions we live in Indiana and like you said on the weekends conservation officers are thick on the lakes
What size nets do you use, i hope to fish up there next summer and i was thinking in the fast water that the 5’ nets people use down on the Kenai might be too big. Any thoughts? Do you have a manufacturer that you prefer?
I’m not sure the diameter of the nets I have, but you are right the big ones they use on the kenai wouldn’t work that great in my opinion. I like the ones that our sold at frontier outfitters in fairbanks they have the blue poles that come apart in 6’ lengths which makes it way easier to get down to the water in the canyon. I try to always use a harness or at least be tied to a rope. I
We still go to the grocery store we just don’t usually buy meat we eat moose and fish. Plus we have a garden also so get some greens from it and we grow potatoes. We also pick quite a few berries in the fall
I like it does pretty much everything I need it to do. The only time It’s been underpowered was when I was using it to pull he 1000’s up a hill that were fully loaded with moose. I bought it because where we hunt a 4 wheeler just doesn’t cut it and both the boys can ride it. I did put a clutch kit in it
@@grousehunter67 the 650 is plenty but I think it’s more the base model, and by the time you put a winch on it your not saving that much. At least that was the case a couple yrs ago. The one my sons ride is the 450.
@@diyalaskanlifestyle They are extremely rare here not sure why , its mostly sxs here with smaller percentage of quads and if there strictly hunters its probally majority guys run quads with trailers like me , i got another lab pup coming so 2 labs will be to much for the back of my Grizzly
Yes I’ve seen bears opening coolers and taking fish on more then one occasion. I’ve also had bears not want to get more then a few ft off the trail when trying to pass on a wheeler. That’s why I’d prefer to clean them the night of instead of waiting but this trailer has locks on it so wasn’t as worried
There is quite a few bears in this area I’ve seen them open coolers and steal fish. I don’t leave mine unattended and if I do they are in a cooler strapped to my trailer
Nope and this is personal use tag if I wanted the subsistence tag it is something like 300. If you want to see something that should be illegal look up trawler bycatch
Never can get over the lack of respect people have for this river by not wearing life jackets. One misstep by any one of those people and bye bye, never to be seen again.
Everyone is wearing a harness except for me the dad which normally I am my harness was left at home on accident. I’d wY rather be in a harness that won’t allow me to fall in rather then a life jacket that will allow you to fall

Easily becoming one of my favorite channels. Yall keep up the great work. Looking forward to your moose hunt.👍
I take back my earlier comment on the fillet job…. Glad to see you harvest even the scrapings along the sides…. Nice job

Thank you for making my bucket list Alaska trip that I'll probably never get to make in my old age God bless you sir and your family and your children that was a beautiful fishing trip once of a lifetime
jonathan, I'm right there with you, pushing 77, living in Maine but no fishing like that here !!!!
I love watching Alaskan salmon fishing videos. I was so happy to see the family wearing harnesses. I wish the Dad would have led by example, wearing one also.
I normally have my harness on, I thought I had forgot mine but it was actually on the rocks by the rest of our gear I thought my wife was wearing mine
Fun video! Enjoyed your family working together and you are an awesome Dad the way you take care of the family. KC Don 😉
Love the way you all work as a team. You got all your fish so quick as well , other channels I watch it took them a couple of days. Respect as always from the uk 👍

That's awesome I love salmon but I am in the high desert of Santa Fe New Mexico at 7500ft elevation and no salmon here. I enjoyed your video, thanks
Awsome video.. lots of fish..:)
Epic adventure! Nice to see you bleeding the fish as soon as you can. Looking forward to the smoking and canning vids.
Prob going to be this winter we are very busy with the house build
You guys killed it!
Headed salmon fishing my self I will finish watching when I get home take care we wish u good health and happiness! That is how I found your channel looking up dipnetting or smoked salmon can’t remember lol

My ol lady seen your dinner date and just looked me.
wow awesome. I am in Chile and also have some amazing places to fish for Salmon.. nice job
nice job scotty! my folks use to take us to that same spot growing up. We called it the red hole because the mass amount of reds we use to get there.

We used to go to that area back in the 1970s..Road/trail wasnt so friendly then
Chitina was a blast this year! Can’t wait for next year. Now the next priority is caribou for the family!
nice fishing gears
Отличная рыбалка. Красивая природа. Но у нас ловят на спиннинг
As an Oregon fisherman- that looks illegal lol I’m jealous I work my ass off for my 5/day limit of trout
Bear 480 Otis in Katmai still has you guys beat in salmon catching LOL.
Moved to Alaska .. I are an Alaskan now ! Gonna go dip cause I can't fish.
Really nice 👌
Glad it worked out for you guys! I went July 3rd and we only got 9 fish in as many hours. Great video!
Great video
Thank you
So awesome, hopefully we’ll run into each other sometime out in the mountains. K
waoooo beautiful pleace
That was the hot spot on the river this year. Caught our 65 limit in about the same amount of time.
👍👌
Awesome lifestyle ✌🏻
Yes it is, but it’s not always as easy as it may seem
Owens the king! 2 at one time
He actually caught 3 at once at the end
no you dont us plumbers work hard to perfect the plumbers crack
great video - I feel for you guys having to haul all those fish up the hill. Putting them in those dry bags is a great idea. That king was a beauty. Do you guys can them or freeze them?
We freeze some, smoke some and can some
and that why i fish at ship creek cause this is for easy people not to hurt ya but i rather use rod and spinner or eggs.
I cant wait to go salmon fishing when i get up there. I've noticed the amount of fish you caught. Isn't there a limit on salmon? Or is there a special license you can buy to catch more?
There is a permit for personal use dipnetting the limit is 25 for head of household and 10 per person living in the home
@@diyalaskanlifestyle thank you
Great video how often do people get checked by fish and wildlife to see if people are following rules I have never heard anyone mention that
Ive been checked a couple times. I usually try and go during the week when there is less people. I think the fish cops hit it hard on the big weekends

Living the dream! What are the backpacks you used to carry the fish up? Brand or link to find them?
They are a dry bag I think they are called seam sill
Thank you, I will keep looking for them! Love your video’s new subscriber. Been laid up for a year so enjoying fishing through watching your videos!
Is there any bears in that area?
Yes lots of black bears
Love it! Great video as always! How self sufficient are you guys when it comes to food? What do you guys typically have to run to the grocery for?
We still go to the grocery store we just don’t usually buy meat we eat moose and fish. Plus we have a garden also so get some greens from it and we grow potatoes. We also pick quite a few berries in the fall
Depleting fish stocks
Thanks for watching the video. I’ll have a moose hunt video out soon that you’ll prob find interesting
Wow first time on your channel and I love it better than netflex
Thank you, glad you like the videos
Tub full of fish Nice trip ! how do you like that smaller 6x6
I like it does pretty much everything I need it to do. The only time It’s been underpowered was when I was using it to pull he 1000’s up a hill that were fully loaded with moose. I bought it because where we hunt a 4 wheeler just doesn’t cut it and both the boys can ride it. I did put a clutch kit in it
@@diyalaskanlifestyle I run a couple newer Grizzlies and ive always wanted a 6x6 do you think the 650 is powerful enough or is a1000 the way to go
@@grousehunter67 the 650 is plenty but I think it’s more the base model, and by the time you put a winch on it your not saving that much. At least that was the case a couple yrs ago. The one my sons ride is the 450.

👍
how strange that 2 videos on 2 channels in a recomendation list have almost exactly the same content on them
Who was the other channel? A lot of people dip net the copper river so it’s not surprising
🇳🇴👍👍
Do you have to worry about bears with all those fish?
Yes I’ve seen bears opening coolers and taking fish on more then one occasion. I’ve also had bears not want to get more then a few ft off the trail when trying to pass on a wheeler. That’s why I’d prefer to clean them the night of instead of waiting but this trailer has locks on it so wasn’t as worried
Thanks again for
All that leftover did you throw in boil it up for dog food they would love that
很羨慕了不起起的一家人
it's uphill climb when you have your harvest and it's dangerous due to their weight and tag line must be worn for your safety..
So cool I just want to jump in this video and cut fish
these reds aka sockeye?
Yep copper river reds
With all the fish about do you have a problem with bears .
There is quite a few bears in this area I’ve seen them open coolers and steal fish. I don’t leave mine unattended and if I do they are in a cooler strapped to my trailer
Are you full time in alaska?
Yes, lived here my whole life
@@diyalaskanlifestyle nice! I just found your channel and live it so far. What do you do for work?
@@marictaylor753 glad you like the videos I work in the oil industry
@@diyalaskanlifestyle awesome! Great channel
Why didn't you wear a harness? Looks dangerous not to!
I usually do I thought I didn’t have one for myself but I actually did in the bag
Use a fishing pole. More sporting.
Has to be illegal?
Nope and this is personal use tag if I wanted the subsistence tag it is something like 300. If you want to see something that should be illegal look up trawler bycatch
Watch here you can't kill al of the salmon just save it
Me wondering why dad,s not wearing a harness and tied off. Just wondering n not to be condescending
I usually always have it on, I didn’t have one in my bag gear bag this trip.
Never can get over the lack of respect people have for this river by not wearing life jackets. One misstep by any one of those people and bye bye, never to be seen again.

Better to do both@@diyalaskanlifestyle
