What Can We Catch Fishing From The Beach In Alaska

[@BlazingShackles]

A sculpin is a type of fish that belongs to the superfamily Cottoidea in the order Scorpaeniformes. As of 2006, this superfamily contains 7 families, 94 genera, and 387 species.

[@crystalr7602]

Nothin' better than the whole family fishing together. I envy you all. My kids are all grown and scattered and I don't get to do this anymore. What a great time. God bless you all.

[@PDpesca]

Love the family vibes, lovely video

[@yattaran1484]

We used to go Anchor river for King salmon fishing back in the day. Also went to razor clam digging to clam gulch. Really miss my old Alaska days.

[@FrankJamger]

So many catches, great trip! A lovely Solstice outing, especially that Eagle scene. And a nice dinner on the grill.

[@johnnyappleseed2058]

I just loved the young ladies narration, she will be a fine fishergirl and show Mom and Dad how it's done!

[@HaveMonkeyWillDance]

Skate are delicious. A king of fish...or queen I guess. Yum.

[@josephdans5473]

Nice family and a great day!

[@uphizzle]

I love surf fishing, I take my gear allover . I would fly up there from ohio just to catch halibut . Great video and that sundown was outstanding. Thanks

[@REightch]

Oh wow cool footage! And catches!

[@Nicknofish]

Wow. If only we had fishing like that in the UK!!! Cheers and tight lines.

[@yikwonjang2978]

How God blessed you and your family. What a raw beauty! Amazing

[@adamgadtalis2435]

Hey man, I came across your channel and great to see you and your family enjoying fishing brother. Thanks!

[@dojo1249]

The only way the kids are going to learn to set the hooks is by letting them do it, misses or not dont take the rod away from them or they cant learn, nor states sizes about who is smaller, its also very rude and a great eay to turn them off(especially girls) fishing with you.

[@sprolyborn2554]

Best to take that on a case by case basis. It all comes down to who the kid is personally. It can be just as much of a turn off due to boredom and frustration if they miss fish after fish as it can be to do everything for them.

[@GrantCarter-ey3pc]

Stfu. Let him raise his own kids. Raise your own.

[@chubbrock659]

Don’t make it about boys vs girls. Woke crap.

[@atatterson6992]

What a mess this dude is... its all about him and he knows EVERYTHING. Don't question Dad, if he says his 5 pounders is 50... well, so be it.

[@arthursutter109]

Nothing wrong with learning in stages. If they never got the excitement of bring in a fishing and have to fight through hard part first. The time, patience, rigging, locating and technique. Kids never develop an interest to try.

[@diggy-d8w]

Love seeing a family actually together doing stuff..... lol, doesn't matter what it is really but being together. I'd like to be catching those flat fish..... flounder where I'm at but there are many types a flat fish & I bet those are clean tasting? Thanks for the adventure >> peace & GB ALL

[@stanleybarker7128]

Man I wish you guys were able to put out more videos. I really enjoy the content you have shown. When I watch your video it makes me wish I was younger so I could travel up to Alaska and do some of what you are lucky enough to do. Keep up the great work. Stan

[@HowtoAlaska]

Things are slowing down since summer is over. I will probably be able to get more videos out as we move into winter. I have at least 4 on the editing table

[@DM_21]

The first video I ever watched was last winter. I was so concerned and disturbed that they 'made' their child go onto the back deck without proper snow gear to push snow off the railing of the deck and make a snow angel. Oh boy, did I leave a comment expressing my horror and sadness over this terrible thing. Well, they answered my comment in the kindest, gentlest way. They assured me that their child wanted to do that and was not forced. By the end of the exchange, I wound up subscribing to their channel. This is a truly beautifully blessed family; and, they hold gratitude for what they have, share, and experience together.

[@thyslop1737]

Looked like a GREAT TIME.

[@digitalmdrealmd9124]

Outstanding, looks like you have a wonderful family. There's nothing like enjoying the outdoors, especially fishing, as a family. I got lucky with my boys' mom, hope they meet girls like your wife and daughter. Your crew looks genuinely happy to be out and they handled those fish perfectly. Well done dad.

[@schumikel8387]

This is beautiful...God blessings, for your family and you..🙌🙌

Skate is good to eat, just got to know what to do with it in preparation.

[@BG-bx4ey]

Garlic butter skate scallops, krab dip, beer battered skate... lots of good ways to cook em!!

[@richardjones2811]

We have similar Flat fish in the UK called Flounder and Plaice and they're good eating indeed.

[@geedee2420]

Sculpin is delicious... Not much meat but what there is tastes awesome!

[@georgethomas2004]

You took the words right out of my mouth. Lots of meat on those big ones.

[@jamesmichaelfreer]

We’d fillet and release all our sculpin and make the most delicious fish tacos. Actually one of our favorites! Avoid “Contempt prior to investigation “!!!

[@jeffgerst3619]

Great job dad

[@Takis214]

I just saw some beautiful beaches for summer swimming and I also think that they are better than Greek islands and more safe...

[@HowtoAlaska]

Except the water is very cold and it has some of the strongest tidal currents in the world😬

[@benjaminfrankson370]

Haven't seen yall in awhile good to watch one of your videos, I'd love to see a small game hunting video from you guys again loved it when you guys would post hunting regularly

[@HowtoAlaska]

We will have a big game hunting one out here soon, its tough to post hunting regularly because our seasons are fairly short

[@tonyo1933]

All you need is a nice camp fire and throw the skate on top of the embers and you have bbq smoked skate..Just peel the skin, and rub some butter..delicious!

[@jimcathcart5116]

Skate wing is good eating

[@HowtoAlaska]

it’s OK in my opinion, a lot of work to clean and not as good as the fish were targeting. I’d eat it if we didn’t have the others as an option.

[@deanbheffelfinger2829]

Sole is much better eating than halibut. I love them yum!

[@BG-bx4ey]

Oh no, it's mushy as hell. Halibut has texture.

[@johnbant8440]

Wow,nice catches....i wishes that one day we good catch them here in the netherlands from the beach but,sadly no we only pay a lot for them here

[@BG-bx4ey]

Man those skates are very tasty if you know how to cook em

[@HowtoAlaska]

They are ok imo, but too much work to clean. there is a reason they are considered a trash fish...the competition is steep here for table fare compared to fish like halibut and salmon. Here is the link to a video we did on the subject kzbin.info/www/bejne/imeZkHlnhp6Vj6s

[@wayneneher6362]

Don't turn your nose up at the Sculpins, they are very tasty.

[@TaneKarnes]

Im interested in how you you would clean halibut. Unfortunately, i dont live in an area close to ocean fishing. Looks like fun.

[@richavic4520]

Filled them, just like any other fish. Their skeletal form is pretty normal. Their eyes just move.

[@TrailerE031]

I miss the fishing in the cook inlet. My 11 yr old son fashioned a pole out of a stick and some random tackle he found laying on the beach, and caught an ugly (irish lord) in about 5 minutes. It was the time of his life! Lol.

[@jamesfrensley5330]

Btw, halibut LOVE SCULPINS!. NEXT time, put a fillet of sculpin on the hook with a little bit of tail to make it flap in the currents. Thay also have that tough skin to stay on the hook longer. Ugly as they me be, the bigger ones make good table fare if few other fish are being caught. Small fillets, but just as tasty as the Sole. Baked, or pan fried Sole, with butter, pepper & a touch of old bay seasoning in a cast iron skillet on a campfire on the beach. Doesn't get much better....

[@uncletiggermclaren7592]

Was the first fish a stargazer? some people call them monkfish. If so, that was a shame not to keep it, they are some of the nicest tasting fish in the sea.

[@HowtoAlaska]

no, it was a great sculpin

[@uncletiggermclaren7592]

@@HowtoAlaska Thanks mate. Have you ever come fishing don here in Kiwi land?.

[@HowtoAlaska]

@@uncletiggermclaren7592 I hear that south Island has some phenominal fishing. Not to mention i'd get extra summer if I went there in our winter

[@uncletiggermclaren7592]

@@HowtoAlaska Yeah, if you like river and lake fishing South Island is the go to. There is trout up here too of course, just less rivers and more people. It is the sea fishing up here in North Island. And with the waters warming, in our Far North we have a lot of tropical fish like Mahi Mahi and the billfish turning up even more than they normally did. The charter rates are not prohibitive. Of course, one hesitates before one mentions the scenery, to one of our Canuck cussies . . . 🤣 We do have 44 volcanoes in Auckland though ! And you can walk a little way into one of them.

[@carlkraus6034]

Looks like fun! I love ocean fishing. Where is your location for this fishing adventure? I know it's Alaska. But really what is your location for directions.

would be great if you could discuss pole, reel, line size, type of hook etc. Really enjoy the video and voice over!

Halibut school in similar sizes. They have to because they'll eat each other if there's a big difference in size.

No need to set the hook while bait fishing from the surf the fish hook themselves when they bend the rod over from the rod holder. Little sister will be out fishing you all soon.
