These shares involve fishing context—set nets, rods, rivers, and lakes where the trip is about fish and something else shows up on the bank or in the dark.
Common threads are water edges, commercial or sport fishing, and parties who came for a harvest. Browse these shares if you want fishing-country encounters across Alaska.

This encounter is from Eric, a fishing guide in the Aleknagik Lake area, that happened with a client in Pike Bay.
I share an experience by a photographer from June of 1999 at Nuyakuk Falls. He no longer does photography in Bristol Bay.
I recount a story from Brandon, a winter caretaker for a remote fishing lodge in the Bristol Bay area. As these encounters often do, Brandon's easy winter job was ruined and he no longer comes to Alaska.
