Hey! Thanks for watching our adventures in Alaska and check out the aluminum prints at alluringarctic.myshopify.com/ . This limited edition release is only available until the end of the year. Not only do you get a cool picture to admire on your wall, but at the same time you also support the creation of these videos!

[@brettbarce8563]

You can tell black bear scat from brown bear scat.... black bear scat has grass, and berries in it. Brown bear scat has bones, jingle bells, and smells of bear spray! 😅😂😂 Another great video thanks and enjoy the great state!! And for the fishing, we call it harvesting because that is what it is, we play baseball, soccer, and football for sport 😊

[@MrRubaduba]

Hi to both of you. My name is Peter, I live on the Isle of Wight in the UK. Thank you for your wonderful videos, I didn't know much about many of the places you sail to but you've transported me to them. Maybe you are adventurous enough to do the things a lot of us would aspire to but for whatever reason can't or won't. So for us mere mortals we'll accompany you from your videos. My wife & I are boaters but of a different kind, we have a motor boat. You guys are travelling thousands of miles on your adventure, the biggest we've done was this summer was a 27 day trip in June to the West Country in the UK. A mere 400 miles but at least we did it. 😊. We are delighted when a new alluringarctic video is posted. You are inspirational and thank you. Peter & Dorothy

[@RulgertGhostalker]

that's what bears like too...fish and berries. they can get pretty unpredictable this time of year....so be careful.

[@RulgertGhostalker]

once you're stocked up, do you plan on sailing further south for the winter ? i think it would cost more to haul out, than spending the winter in cruise.

[@RulgertGhostalker]

i just remembered that the Japanese current keeps coastal Alaska Warmer than Here !!! i am in wisconsin, and the fresh water freezes quicker also....almost every sailboat, on wisconsin shores, needs to haul out in winter ....but you have salt, and the warm current. the southern islands of the Alaskan archipelago seem like they would be a nice place to winter, if the sea state wasn't too rough.

[@colinwilliams9290]

I think I can speak for most of your viewers when I say how much we appreciate being taken along on your adventure, seeing sights that we would otherwise be unlikely to experience. Many thanks.

For those that don't know, Juho's last name is literally bear in Finnish (Karhu)

[@alto491]

That's amazing to know!

[@lindaholt7596]

Great video, glad you are enjoying Alaska. We live in a Federal subsistence designated area and use the resources to offset the high prices of staples that we need. Some of the methods we use are different than sports fishing. Nothing is wrong about either method as long as it's a sustainable resource. We had a trail camera just up from our cabin that recorded a little over 1900 photos of bears in a months time when the pinks were running. We enjoy watching the bears and don't really worry about them to much. We enjoy the way you portray this part of the world without the hype of all the reality shows.

[@BreakingBarriers2DIY]

I like your approach to explaining the fishing and potential controversy. I also admire how you share your bear encounter while letting the drama of such a thing appear naturally. LOL “and now we are going to turn them into alcohol…”

[@GeomancerHT]

How weak you have to be as a person to need explanations for humans being on the top of food chain...

[@jeantesc812]

I don't see many cruisers pressure caning, it's a great way to preserve your catch in the boom times.

[@aramisorrel]

Maybe it's because of customs and other inspections.

[@teeanahera8949]

A lot of people microwave bottling their preserves now instead of a pressure cooker. You leave the metal lids on in the microwave process. The mass of the glass to metal ratio allows this. This is a very fast process as it only takes a few minutes. Conversely the pressure cookers and bead makers are great to make jam in.

[@seve305]

Bit late answer but also if ypu do canning wrong you can get botulism

[@BallardBaller]

I'm so inspired, Was living in SF when you bought the boat, I'm now living in Seattle, and have dreamt about this sailing trip for over a decade. Currently boat shopping. Will be buying a print for inspiration!

[@LPay-jy8mx]

Wow, that is a TON of nagoonberries! You lucked out on the collecting spot, as there is only one berry per plant ... so it's very time-consuming, but the most delicious berry in Alaska!. Bear spray is by far the most successful way to protect yourself, several studies have shown that it's a much better form of protection than guns, as your gun must be powerful enoughn to kill a bear, you need excellent marksmanship, and enough time to set, aim and fire (not always possible if a bear is charging!). Make noise as you walkalong rivers, and watch out for tiny poops (cubs! which mothers protect ferociously!).

[@standubaj8989]

You guys are 1 in a million,this is an adventure not just sailing 👍

[@electrosonicnebula]

As usual crisp images with great color and smooth editing down to the finest details and the exact right direction and amount of engaging and educational narration. Re salmon in that river mouth, it's legal in Alaska for a reason. Like spearfishing, it seems like a spectacular catch but doesn't even come close to the overall impact of any commercial fishing method.

[@mikefriend7570]

What an amazing journey. To find yourself in wilderness lands that maybe very few others have travelled through must be very special. I’m not sure how keen I would be to be sharing my journey with bears, but I guess it comes with the territory. I’m not a fan of guns for any reason either, but especially not dispatching wildlife that call these land their home. As always very thoughtful and reasoned dialogue about how you go about food gathering.

[@captainchristianguy3307]

No judgement on you fishing methods. You want it for food it's what we all used to do for food. It is sold at a super market, it does not come from a super market Sick show man!

[@stevenhorne5089]

In the U.S. we call that snag fishing. A lot of Alaskan's live a subsistence lifestyle, so they are constantly needing to stock up their root cellular and freezers. They are very aware and respectful to what wildlife mean to them, and are thankful to nature for giving them what they need to survive. I love your video's.

[@DrGonzoTravels]

I think being bear aware is the best safety strategy. You guys clearly know the risks and are aware of your surroundings. Bear spray is just as good as a gun, and honestly, having a gun would complicate sailing without really having any net benefit.

[@MetalTeamster]

[@markusandgreta4941]

Breathtaking......the berries, fish & bear too 😉. Thank you Juho & Sohvi for capturing this beauty.....not the bear poop 😑. Take care! btw: It's a pleasure to listen while you both speak Finnish.

[@marklanders630]

I feel that the catch and release sport fishers are the unethical ones. When fishing or hunting for food you must think of yourself first.

[@lnnx3725]

Great to see some more videos of beautiful landscapes and awesome adventures

[@bfs007a]

WRT ethics, I am not sure why it would be less painful or traumatic with the hooks in the mouth of the fish. WRT quantity, you're certainly not trawling.

[@markiosty8748]

I think snagging is fine if it's legal and your using the meat for survival/winter......I don't see the difference in hooking them in the mouth or hooking them in the back if it's food !

[@yellowdeer7163]

I don't particularly like any salmon, but Cod I do like a lot. I don't mind snagging for fish as long as one keeps the fish for consumption. Thank you for the video.

[@marcroyer845]

I'm following you and I admire your travel . I had a French boat RM 1270 i left La Rochelle in 2017 solo sailing and i was stop by the covid in New Zealand . I write you first to thank you for the dream you give me and also to tell you that this way to conserve the food is excellent I at the last box with tuna coming from the Pacific Ocean 2 years later. In fact if the vacuum is still in place the food is good for a long time and it's delicious because you prepare with spices and olive oil . I admire your self control in front of these huge bear . You ski also so nicely where nobody has gone before you . Sailing and skiing were also two passions for me but the Parkinson disease decided a complete changing of life that's why i like so much your adventure . Thank you

[@teeanahera8949]

To me it’s odd that you call it canning, I wondered how you put fish into a can. We call it bottling in Australia because we do it in glass jars, like you do. I do a lot of preserving but mostly using a dryer, finding jars that seal well is the main difficulty, it is a humid environment and without a perfect seal the dried vegetables begin to rehydrate after about 6 months. I am a keen fisherman too and you’re perfectly correct about the inhumane aspect of commercially harvested or grown fish. Trawler fishing with nets destroys tens of thousands of bycatch fish which wash up on our beach when the trawlers are around. The prawn trawlers also destroy the sea grass “fields” and sea grass is the staple diet of Dugongs which are becoming endangered.

[@johnwaters4566]

In Canada we call it canning when we use the glass jars too.

[@real2gone]

Wonderful adventures, guys. Thanks for posting.

[@davidc6510]

Wow Juho and Sohvi so good to see more amazing drone footage from your channel showcasing the beautiful Alaskan wilderness - it make me yearn to book a trip and get back to good ole mother nature. Don't worry about comment from people criticising your fishing for sustenance - you do it legally and ethically and the meat does not go to waste. I think it is a great tip and showcasing how you preserve the food is bonus footage. Thanks for sharing!

[@tassiedevil2400]

There's not much skill in long lining, netting or trawling either... but that doesn't stop millions of people buying their fish in a can... at least you are out catching your own. 👍

[@johndorian473]

9:47 Don't worry about it Juho. If a fish could eat you it will without a second thought about ethics. So we really need to stop paying attention to hyper emotionally driven rabid fish/animal activists that don't have a single life skill other than complaining and virtueSignalling. I love fishing videos and you're knowledge is a treat

[@ImTheDudeMan471]

I am interested in hearing your "comparison between northern Alaska vs. northern FInland". Does it look the same? Is the wildlife the same? Are there more marinas?

[@TeemuSa]

Depending on how north you mean, Northern Finland doesn't really have marinas as we are land locked from the North. If you count the area between North Western Finland and Sweden, there are marinas, but the landscape is very flat. In general, in the lack of a better English word, the mountains in Finland are much more eroded and older, so the landscape isn't as jagged with high cliffs and tall trees.

[@TzeentchLordofChange]

@@TeemuSa we dont have many marinas in northern alaska either. Just north of where this was filmed is valdez its our furthest north port that stays ice free in winter

[@bradley7723]

Another beautiful video. Like you stated in your video, the pink salmon are on the lower end, here in Washington state we just call them "Humpies" they migrate up the rivers on odd numbered years. In summer when the water level is low you can wade out and will bounce off your legs there's so many of them. I've even caught them bare handed but released them right away. They are usually smoked or as you have done canned as their a very oily fish. Sometime if you get a chance put pie cherries with vodka in a jar that also a nice winter treat. Thank you so much for sharing your adventure with me. Until next time may the wind always fill your sails.😊

[@Velo1010]

Is it cruel to catch the salmon? No. Just like it’s not cruel for a bear to them with their teeth. And well I agree that using the bear spray to ward off their threat.

[@Walcingham509]

Its generally advised to pre heat your jars before filling with hot jam and putting in the hot canner. If your not getting any cracked jars out of the canner then its not a problem.

[@baron1c]

10:45 yes. Take the fish for food. Sport is secondary to food.

[@tymanot]

Nice Episode. Thanks for sharing your food preperation. Beautiful scenery.

[@BreakingBarriers2DIY]

PS: The doctor is is in the house and both of you looking happier for it. Thanks for this great content.

[@dwighthires3163]

Here are my thoughts about snagging pink salmon. We have a saying. "Only white men play with their food." There is no way to get enough fishermen to where these fish come into rivers in excess. I only mouth hooked fish could be retained there would be an excess of pinks in rivers and the cohos and kings would not have spawning locations.

[@jginmt]

There have been 4 bear encounters this fall around me. A few bears were killed. The hassle of dealing with the Government after isn't worth it. Keep in mind if a bear is charging you defending his territory he will be coming at you at about 30 miles an hour. You will only have a few seconds to react. Be aware you can read the body language, The bear that gets you is the one you don't see or hear. They run through the woods in total silence.

[@halfnelson6115]

Yeah, snagging is legal in Alaska. They even let folks use dip nets up there. Heres a tip. Keep your fishing rod at 90° to the fish when your reeling it in.. Dont point your rod directly at the fish.

[@ghhammer3498]

I crossed a couple Karhu's in the forest. Glad I brought my Finnish spray. Said a bear.

[@paulvlug-zu4tz]

It’s a few fish for eating, I don’t see a major issue 👍

[@garybroom8418]

Loving this channel, the nature and photography is terrific. Would you consider adding a date to your episodes? As most of us sit in our warm houses, it would be great to think that (for example) last week when I was working or -whatever, at that time or at least day, you guys were checking out bear poop! Or skiing or making alcoholic jam ( there's a thought). I think it would bring you guys and your subscribers closer.

[@billkurek5576]

Yes. I agree and we’re also like if you told us your current temperature and your current position on a map. I know you’ve used Maps before but then you move and I lose the adventure. Excellent photography. Thanks for sharing.

[@mountainwest3444]

It's interesting to see that you planned in advance to do canning by the utensils you use. Carrying Bear Spray is far better than a gun. Killing animals should be avoided if possible. Very nice and beautiful Video as always. Stay Safe !

[@gailandrews3625]

Stunningly beautiful scenery 🤩

[@RogerFleischer-p3f]

So happy to se that. you are adjusting to Alaska and that nature is rewarding you with some of its riches. It only takes one bear to be interested in you to ruin your day--if not your life. Better be prepared for that one bear, just in case.

[@RichieKeane]

Another fantastic episode. big difference between sport and survival fishing…

[@carenclemmons5002]

Wheeww, glad the bears headed out after seeing y’all. I have been concerned about them altering the peaceful adventures y’all take. Awesome berry and fish collection. There are rules for taking the salmon due to them being food staples of native folks right to take them. Study up on that. Don’t want y’all crossing the legal lines up there. It is so lush up there. Many plants inhabiting one square foot. Quite unique as forests go. When I trekked around outside of Anchorage I was so blown away by the plethora of ferns covering the woods. Thanks for the awesome footage. Y’all stay safe. Love your videos

[@kellygrannis8024]

don't fully submerge your jars when canning. Half or 3/4 up the jar is sufficient.

[@jonathanrichards593]

"The lagoon awaits..." According to Google™ Earth, that lagoon is actually *called* Bear Lake! The imagery I'm seeing was taken when it was much colder, though.

[@theowenssailingdiary5239]

Why do you feel the need to justify your fishing to ANYBODY? Living like that must be unbearable. A dude living on a boat catching his own food should surely be above virtue signalling to those who know barely how to tie their shoes.

[@chuckperry3313]

I am late to the party here finding your channel, BUT I love it. Love the sailing. Your boat is rigged kind of like mine in that hoisting the main is done at the mast. Not the current method these days. As far as the fishing in this current film, we don't eat meat for ethical reasons. If we did eat it, I feel what you are doing is a much more balanced approach. You are not killing or wounding things unnecessarily. You dispatch them quickly (thanks for not showing that BTW). You eat what you catch. I also love the fact that you both seem undaunted by sailing around in winter. It seems like many humans in the north hibernate during the dark season. Great channel. My new favorite.

[@EricZuber-z6l]

Nicely done. And you are absolutely correct about the white noise from the water making bear encounters more frequent. Some hunters use that to cover their footfalls when snow is exceptionally crunchy. We don't carry a fire arm either, just bear spray. Maybe we'll see you out there.

[@krockpotbroccoli65]

For anybody who wants to suggest that they have a firearm with them, keep in mind that they are Finns who are merely traveling in the US. The only people who can legally buy guns in the US are citizens and green card holding permanent residents. They would have to break the law to get one, then eventually have to traverse multiple international boundaries, likely breaking the law in those places as well. I think bear spray is a better option.

Ive gotta say that the Pacific NorthWest of Canada and Alaska has got to be the most beautiful, idyllic and serene place on planet Earth. I've seen some truly beautiful places (I grew up in Far North Queensland in the rainforests and spent a lot of time on the Great Barrier Reef....and that's one of the most amazing places on our planet), but the Pacific NorthWest of the North American continent is truly a cut above the rest. It's given me a truly intense desire to visit....even move there permanently. It's been calling to me for years now. As I get older, the heat on the East Coast of Australia just gets harder to deal with....Canada and Alaska are looking really nice.

[@teropiispala2576]

I don't think it's much worse for a fish to get the hook on the back than inside the mouth or guts. I have been fishing since I was 5, but one thing I can't understand is catch and relese. It's done just for fun and fishes with torn up mouths are released and maybe caught again and again. It's kind of natural right for each species to catch and eat others but we should find other hobbies than fishing just for fun.

Definitely not a sailing related comment, but I listened to a performance of Finlandia last night, what an absolutely magnificent and inspiring piece of music by Sibelius. Everyone in Finland must know that music well. I was in an orchestra many years ago (in Canada) that performed Finlandia, with a choir, and I had forgotten how powerful it is. I never looked for an English translation of the lyrics until this morning. I'm guessing that music was inspired by gaining independence from Russia? Here is the English translation: Finland, behold, thy daylight now is dawning, the threat of night has now been driven away. The skylark calls across the light of morning, the blue of heaven lets it have its sound, and now the day the powers of night is scorning: thy daylight dawns, O Finland of ours! Finland, arise, and raise towards the highest thy head now crowned with mighty memory. Finland, arise, for to the world thou criest that thou hast thrown off thy slavery, beneath oppression's yoke thou never liest. Thy morning's come, O Finland of ours! Awesome stuff, and all the more relevant given recent events on the other side of the Baltic.

They aren't unpredictable, by far the majority will run unless they are protecting young. Bear sprays might not always work, but guns don't either. You'll hardly have time to aim it and you could still miss. Unless of course you plan to shoot every bear you see from a distance, just to make your hike safer. ;)

When the shore is easy (sand or pebbles) then it's easy to carry the dinghy. If the shore is difficult (boulders) then the wheels aren't useful and just add extra weight

[@Craftsingles1]

This scenario you have with snagging you are doing it in a clear body of water & the only fish in there are those that are swimming up stream all around the same size. I think the main concern or problem with snagging is when it's in murky water and your unaware of the size you might be catching... I guess it's considered inhumane because the hook might get lodged in a way that could inevitably cause the death of the fish and the odds the fish would be able to return unharmed is lower than traditional fishing.

The following is a summary of regulations that apply statewide which are found in either Chapter 75 of the Alaska Administrative Code or in Title 16 of Alaska Statutes: (1) A person may not take fish in fresh water with (a) a fixed or weighted hooks and lures (except those of standard manufacture), (b) multiple hooks with gap between point and shank larger than 1/2 inch, unless permitted in the area regulations in the Arctic-Yukon-Kuskokwim area, (c) spear, unless permitted by the area regulations, or (d) arrow, unless permitted by the area regulations. (2) It is unlawful to intentionally snag or attempt to snag any fish in fresh water. Fish unintentionally hooked elsewhere than the mouth must be released immediately. "Snag" means to hook a fish elsewhere than in the mouth.
