  • Ever wondered what it's like being a commercial fisherman? Here's some first-hand footage of the commercial salmon fishing industry in Southeast Alaska. A calm day near East Addington Bay, Noyes Island, Alaska. About 2 hrs. (via boat) from Craig, AK.
    Footage taken on F/V Lucky Star. August, 2018.
    Net rolls varied from 1,500 lbs. - 4,000 lbs. This is good fishing with a nice mix of all 5 species of salmon (10 names). Chum (dog), coho (silver), sockeye (red), pink (humpy), and king (chinook). Even some beautiful steelhead salmon (sea-run rainbow trout)! These bright fish on the coast are what people pay big money for in the restaurants.
    Nothin' quite like pulling a beautiful salmon out of the saltwater and into the boat galley oven; 30 mins. later you're savoring the delicious fish with a green salad. :)

    Thanks for posting. Brings back memories of running the lead line on a 54’ boat a very long time ago.

    I assume your boat is 58 feet long and about 19 wide. In the 60's I was on a 44-foot troller converted to a seiner. I see you used the power of the winch to bring the fish aboard. Most of the time we had to use a brailer because of the boat's size. We fished more inside waters in Southeast. When I was 9 years old in '54, my dad ran a stationary buying barge which was anchored at Noyes Island. Although he later owned a seiner, at that time my much older brother had a 36-foot troller and brought his catch into the barge where my dad worked which contained a modified store. In the 60's enclosed flying bridges were not common.

      Hard work, in a very heavily controlled industry. The salmon population is closely monitored and there are many days in season where you cannot go out to fish, the counts are to low.
      If you can get the green card, I have no doubt you could get work in the fleet. Hard workers are not turned away unless they are a complete screw-up. It would probably help if you could get some experience fishing in Mexico, both in getting the green card and getting hired afterwards.

    That boat used to be the Dora R. I was the cook one season around 1980. Pete Peterson was the captain. I learned a lot. Bruster

      Very cool! I am from Ukraine, I also do commercial fishing, but we do not have the same volumes as yours and the vessel is smaller! but the principle of fishing is similar to yours, we use a structure scanner to find schools, and fence them with gill nets, then we scare the fish with the noise of a motor, and it tries to leave and gets into the net!

    Painful to watch, I couldn’t wait long enough to watch a fish come in, hopefully they caught 1.
