Commercial Fishing Photo Of The Day | Sitka Harbor Pano 2013

April 14, 2013 JuneauTek Leave a comment

Most of the seiners and tenders were gone by the time I took this. Is still a great representation of how huge the harbor is in Sitka.

This project was funded on Kickstarter with the last year and has drawn the attention of a few gadget magazines including, Engadget (here). The retail price tag is only $199, which makes this one of the most affordable quality drones on the market. I cant wait to get my hands on one of these to film salmon swimming in the set. Check out the site: http://myziphius.com/

I hardly took any footage during the FisherPoets Gathering, so here is a slice of life filmed today while exploring the Astoria waterfront. The epic history of Astoria really amazes me. Most of the day, I was trying to imagine the city nearly a 100 years ago. If only the docks could talk…

Commercial Fishing Video Of The Day | Ports Of Call | Astoria, OR
February 25, 2014 JuneauTek Leave a comment
In the late 1800s, salmon traps dominated the landscape of commercial fishing in Alaska. For nearly 70 years, the salmon traps efficiently harvested massive volumes and controversy eventually ended the practice when Alaska gained statehood. The traps were primarily ran by large processors in the lower 48, which angered Alaskan locals and spawned the days of “Fish Pirates,” who would steal from these traps in a Robin Hood style liberation of resources. With the advent of statehood, fish traps were retired and and the limited entry permit system that we all know today was put into place. A few relics of fish traps exist today in Excursion inlet and many fishermen still frequent the locations of the old salmon traps, but those days have passed. However, Metlakata recently implemented a modern fish trap that might be an example of the future of fish traps. Is it possible that fish traps could return to Alaska waters? Only time will tell. Enjoy the video below to get a perspective of what it was like when fish traps were everywhere. Also, there are links below to explore the history on your own.

Fishtory | The Days Of Salmon Traps And Fish Pirates
October 23, 2013 JuneauTek 2 Comments
The history of Craig, Alaska is tied closely to commercial fishing and logging. Over the years, Craig has remained a fairly quaint community, with a population of about 1500 residents. The true treasure of Craig is in the pristine location. Numerous commercial fishermen flood the region for close access to the west coast of Prince Of Wales Island and the rich ocean waters that surround the neighboring islands. Seiners and trollers cherish the “ocean fresh” fish that swarm along the coastal regions. Sport fishermen also relish the quick access to some of the best King salmon fishing in Alaska. Of course, Craig sounds like just another sleepy fishing town in Southeast Alaska, but there is a more mysterious side. Stay tuned for an upcoming Strange Tales post in honor of Halloween that highlights some of the mystery surrounding this simple little town.
