Re: Brown Bear Trust me the one in the trees is a four year old max and was so small he may be one of this years three year olds that were booted out of the nest.
Re: Brown Bear Was watching the small 4 year old fishing when he started acting very nervous and took off running up the slope and stopped in the alders. The large boar lumbered on the scene and smelled the young guys tracks and proceeded to take his spot fishing while being watched by the...
Re: Brown Bear 18E: Our local breezes make steel cable/anchor a good option. md: Don't know what the deal is with the corners but for some reason they prefer to chew on them. All of my buildings have teeth marks in the corner.
This guy walked about 75 feet away from the bride and I in the back yard last night. By the time I got upstairs to get the camera he was half way to my neighbors unoccupied cabin where he stopped for snack of cedar siding, paused for a lenghty back rub, then snorted a few gas fumes and buzzed off.
Re: Alaska Salmon Harvest LX: Great photos. We just clicked over 1 million past the front door. Used to do the canning but became to labor intense. Have all our smokers done just need to put some regular fillets in the freezer for the rain gutter and cedar plank on the grill thing during the...
This is the sow and three cubs I posted shots of in my Sockeye thread. The grass was so tall on this knoll I think she was having a problem locating all of her cubs. A little over 800 yards from my front deck. I had the camera/tripod facing into a 40 mph wind and I was surprised to get any...
Re: Fresh Sockeye MSD: We save the bellies and smoke them all at once in strips. BTW you know the coloration of real wild salmon but I never touched the color except for white balance when I processed these in Lightroom as most people that buy salmon in the grocery store do not know the true...
Re: Fresh Sockeye DT: I got tired of the salmon taste a long time ago and I think you will agree after you try the rain gutter thing that it just doesn't taste like salmon. More like a good steak. The two of us usually eat 2/3 of a large fillet for supper than I eat the other 1/3 cold for...
Re: Fresh Sockeye It wasn't that crowded on the water 20 years ago except during the derby's but like everything thing else I imagine that has changed. What I liked about SE back then was the real Alaska was only as far as the boat ramp.
Re: Fresh Sockeye MH: I miss the time I spent in SE also. Used to fish the Haines King derby every year when I worked in Juneau. Trolling for Kings while scoping for black bear was hard to beat. A 20lb sivler down there wasn't that big a deal.
Re: Fresh Sockeye TO: Being able to live where I do with a bride that loves it as much as I do is way beyond luck to me. Not sure what it is but it is very good.
Re: Fresh Sockeye OK here is my go at documenting the recipes from my bride. The Upper Rain Gutter Liner bite size version: After cutting to the skin in the diamond pattern shown marinate for two hours in a plastic bag with a brine of 3/4 cup Apricot sauce,1 tblsp of sesame seed oil, 2...
