Summertime is salmon time in Alaska. Whether you’re working on a seiner in False Pass, heading to fish camp with the family, spending your 10th season guiding out of Yakutat, or planning your first trip to Alaska’s bountiful waters, you’re bound to hook up with some wild Pacific salmon. Carefully managed to feed us for generations to come, wild salmon nourish our bodies and our spirits. These salmon are sporting their spawning colors—look for them in streams and rivers around the state.
