local tip
How to know when the fishing's good:
look to the
fish trucks!
"If the trucks are coming back from the Situk with more than 10 fish totes on the bed, that's how I know that the fish are running. When the bed is empty, I don't bother."
--Local Man Stan
WILL THE NETS AFFECT MY CATCH?
No, nets are limited to 120 feet long and cover only a small part of the estuary. This allows many fish to continue upstream into the Situk River.
