"... I saw someone stuck in deep muck there another guy lost his tackle and his new 45." Alaska eats the weak and the stupid.

Can you fish penguin at the atv bridge??

[@Friendly_you]

I got a 32LBS king salmon while fishing bobber and eggs during low tide at the deep spot and no they're not pinks I had a Kg scaler it weighted 14.54kg exactly 32 pounds.

[@glennmuir5617]

When did you catch that king?

[@Friendly_you]

@@glennmuir5617 July 15th I saw someone caught a big red king salmon hen last year on the 30th

[@907akfshrmn]

there is a lot of pinks at bird creek and the king salmon are off limits, which I do not ever recall it being open to keeping king salmon in all of the years that I have fished southcentral area. You see people taking kings and saying it is a big coho, which they get mad when someone who knows that their big fish is a king salmon.

Can i fish with a gun concealed with a fishing license?

[@espritdealaska]

yes.

[@JustMike2791]

It's Alaska no permit required to carry concealed

[@espritdealaska]

@@JustMike2791 Not only that but fishing actually provides an affirmative defense against the law prohibiting concealed carry under the age of 21. see AS 11.61.220 (a)(6) #iamnotalawyer
