We only did so so this fall but I had a real good time. We pulled my boat to Valdez behind my motorhome for silvers and limited out. Our halibut charter was canceled due to rough seas out in the Gulf of Alaska. It turned out the charter owner didn't want to go out that day and was hoping we'd charter for silvers instead which I declined since I had my own boat there for that.
We went to the Yukon to fish pike but the Dall river was bank full due to all the recent rain so we had to work very hard for a few nice pike which we released. We fished for 2 full days and had a nice camp so it was not wasted time.
Moose season brought us one 53 inch bull for 3 hunters so that was not as good as we'd hoped but we still ended up with all the meat we really needed for our familes. All three of us are getting on in years and we don't need as much meat since our families are grown. I do share with my daughters though and they enjoy the moose meat since they grew up eating it and it is free to them rather than buying beef from the store.
