New Hook Shots: The Great Alaskan Silver Rush

By Joe Cermele

So after nine days of traversing coastal Alaska, here's what I learned: There's nothing easy about salmon shark fishing, it is possible to catch so many silver salmon your arms turn to Jell-O, and good rain gear might just be the most important item in an angler's arsenal. There is no such thing as a guarantee in fishing, but regardless of some "liquid sunshine," the beauty of Alaska is always guaranteed to impress. Enjoy the episode, and don't forget to take the latest Hook Shots Quiz here for a chance to win some Rapala AlumaPro Pliers.

Slayed 'em! That's too bad about your shark, looks like you guys had a ton of meat to bring back though.

Hey JC, I got a great idea for one of your next Hook Shots. Have a contest, pick a reader of the blog and go to their home waters to fish with them. Not me though, I'm fairly inept at fishing :)

Moose, believe me that idea has been kicked around. It's not off the table either, just need some logistics sorted out. I will be fishing with a reader this fall though, but he won the Crown Royal photo contest that we did this year.

Y'all really do put together a nice show. Wish I was in a position to do the things you get to do, but I guess that's why they pay you guys the big bucks ;-) Can't wait for the next one.
