Wow!! Dipnetting 2022 Season got a little crazy for us! Watch as we get stranded on the Copper River on our jet boat and figure out how to rescue ourselves. We decide to revert back to old school, tried and true dipnetting techniques with much success. Good times and lots of adventure!

I hope you continue to show more hands on reality of the day to day survival videos, because that is what life is about!

We’d have loved to stop but Alaska airlines is greedy and wouldn’t let us do a delayed layover, even though we’re flying through Juneau. They wanted us to pay for an extra leg. It’s just too expensive.

Have you ever fished for halibut out of Valdez? I have not but I think we would like to try. Just do not know who to go with. Our ppl out of Seward take us out 3 hours from port but we get large halibut.

I’ve fished out of Valdez many yrs ago and back then everyone went out to seal rocks out in the gulf. I didn’t feel it was worth the long trip out and back to catch 2 halibut.

Different salmon spawn at different times. General king salmon are first starting in May. Then red salmon in June and silvers in July. Pink salmon and chum salmon are mixed in there also.

What's the benefit of driving the boat so fast in unknown depth? Stay safe out there.

@wildwoodoffgridalaska 11 ай бұрын

Jet boats need to be on a plane to run shallow, which requires speed. Going down river you need to exceed the speed or the water to maintain steering control. Down river is what I consider the most dangerous part of jet boating.
