Trout University staff goes to Alaska

Tom and Valerie from troutu.com staff are taking a much needed vacation in Alaska. They are sending back some great photos and a fishing report on the Kenai, and Russian Rivers as well as Deep Creek. Salmon are running and the fishing was spectacular on the kenai.

The local fishermen are allowed to dip net the salmon as they run up the Kenai. They use nets on long poles to scoop the salmon and drag them to shore where they "konk" them over the head. The object is to get enough salmon to fill the freezer for winter. Forget going there for that event as you must be a resident for one year to be allowed to participate. Watch it here:
