  • @dwayneelizondomountaindewh1465

    Ohhh this is epic !. This a sick fishing spot. Small river don't mean anything to a King Salmon, not even in Indiana. What a monster wow, I seen coho in skinnier rivers than this, in Indiana, what is the dark red salmon I forgot. Remember, we have the great lakes area full of salmon, but the bass fishing stinks in the same area. I been up to Leech lake reservation, twice, good nice bass and everything else, enormous Muskies, that place is a fishing extravaganza. Really glad I decided to go there, good memories on the lake. Not hard to hook Muskie there, they get little pressure in mid summer, talk to locals and find out what they are pressuring the fish with and why. I just targeted something besides walleye, just avoid attention and over pressured species. Nobody wants people following you on the lake, either cause that's annoying, I just want to be left alone since I drove so far north, but you need to cross the border for seclusion. People on this side of the border, are very social butterflies, it's always Miller time up there in Mn. So, wait for a full Moon then go, trolling or casting seems to work fine for giant muskie. Next time I will troll with giant plugs, around 3-5 mph. Not that big of a deal, they just can eat anglers...city people.

    Try this recipe for dipping sauce or a glaze
    Honey-balsamicc dressing
    1 1/2 tbs honey
    1 1/2 tbs Dijon mustard
    1 tbs balsamic vinegar
    1/4 tsp pepper
    1/4 tsp garlic salt
    It’s really good. Great fish. Hope I get one in 7 days.

    Grew up in Milwaukee. The 40yrs of living less than a mile from the lake, I always fished king's. Grant Park, Miller Park and every other tributary was always loaded with giant's. Never ever ate one out of that terdhole though.

      They're all transplanted west coast salmon and landlocked just like the steelhead/rainbow in the great lakes. I lived in SW ontario and although the salmon are fun to catch, not many people catch any of them to keep. The meat's not good, the meat color isn't right. Every summer the stores fill up with commercial caught ocean bright salmon shipped from the west coast and people buy it up. Living in salt water with their natural diet makes such a difference.

    Those Creeks the Ninilchik - Deep Creek - Anchor river if you used a Lure Jenson side planer and a K 13 - K 14 k fish with a herring rap in those long runs and bends of corners when its deep it takes no more than 5 minuets to get hooked up with a Chinook / bait fishing sucks and is to slow for me when I can get a hook up in under 5 minuets with wrapped K fish.
    You only need no more than 20 feet of line from the side planer and K fish being the creeks are small and not greatly deep.
    There used to an AK fish & Game biologist name was Jeff who hated me because of me using the side planed and wrapped K fish plugs so he would chew me out for my method of fishing - the jackass was also a commercial fisherman who hated all fishing tourism.
    On outgoing tide at Bird creek inlet side of the railroad tracks if the channel is there the Chinook can stake up there and again the side planner and K fish wrapped with Harring slaughters the fish here and you are on the Inlet side making keep a Chinook legal but in Bird creek retention of Chinook isn't allowed.

      @@NBedits I have offered guide services for Hunting and fishing since 1978 and in 1989 I moved to Alaska to advance my guide services then came covid wrecking all of my guide work then getting me stranded and bankrupted in commie Oregon.
      When guiding clients from Cook Inlet sometimes I would take the clients to those creeks with the lure Jenson side planners and herring wrapped K - 14s and even K- 16s and now the K 13 would be perfect to used wrapped with herring then used all 3 creeks is a slaughter of Chinook.
      Just wrap all your K plugs before going to the creeks because that action is hot and fast so no time to repair a herring wrap after landing a Chinook just change to a new wrapped plug.
      You must know also to tune the side planner, so the trip arm won't prematurely trip with the heavy pull of the Kwik fish plugs.
      The side planner arm you take the lower arm after sliding the tension spring off the arms - then you bend the lower arm to straighten the arm out allowing you to slip the tensioning spring further down the wire arms making a tighter trip tension.
      From the Highway bridge over the Ninilchik start your side planned above the cornet and run to under the bridge is a fish on spot and the hole below the bridge is a fish on spot and all the way up is ever deeper run to bend you have hook ups.
      The bend hole above the deep creek bridge is smoking hot and the campground water for 3 bends down the Anchor River is absolute fish on with K fish..
      On a outgoing tide to make current for the K fish and side planner you can intercept new Chinook in the Anchor River from the mouth to the line of the campgrounds.
      New salmon coming in are extremely aggressive in plugs and are the Coho when in and same use K-14 sized plugs with warps.
      Word of caution I have personally experienced with Chinook close to the mouth of Cook Intel and Anchor River is have a far sized level wind reel because once hooked these fish make a reel smoking run for the Inlet again.
      This spot also many times you get a Hugh Steelhead on the K fish with a large one I caught on a K 16 here the steelhead was 28 pounds of a monster.
      Hit the first parking stop after going over the bridge to entry to Anchor River campgrounds, this is a salmon holding zone. start the side planer always well above the fish holding water and walk a little and stop and repeat this and don't give any rod movement and no slack in the line to be just like a boat back rolling always keeping the plug working steady.
      Use 3 foot of a minimum or 50-pound leader to stop the fish from cutting the line when violent twisting that hooks snag the line and cut it from a fish turning and running.
      Don't shy away from using K 15s or K 16s because of the plug goes out of side those creek Chinook will grab the plugs.
      This is a way to get away from curing bait and smelly bait that gets all over you the car and sinks up everything.
      At the end of the day, you won't have punk stained fingers.
      Prep your Sardin or herring cuts in salt to keep them firmed up and stop the smelliness.
      Use a clear nylon sewing thread to wrap your herring strips on the plugs.
      Places that sell sewing goods is a best place to by nylon sewing threads.

      @@NBedits At times I come back to Alaska so if you want a demonstration how to fish plugs in the creeks, I could do that for you.
      You will be amazing how many fish won't take a drifted bait but won't pass up a wrapped plug.
      I had many times AK Troppers in their normal clothing fallowing me and watch from the bushed because over time it ticked off fishermen then I think I was accused of snagging because no one catches that many salmon the creeks as I did.
      I was also checked in the parking by the Troopers who were dumb funded I caught the salmon in the creeks on plugs and couldn't understand what a side planned was.
