    Alaskan wild fisheries are one of the ONLY sustainable fisheries on the planet. Ever since recorded history settlers have monitored the Wild Salmon Runs and the strongest Run EVER recorded happened just a couple of years... So much so that whales are now memorizing the salmon fry release dates and preparing to devour millions of new fry every year. Overall... things for Alaskan Wildlife look good! Fact Check me please.
    .
    Here is how it works. After the Russians sold the land to the USA there were no regulations for the fishery systems in Alaska. Many of the salmon runs were almost driven to depletion. Then around 60 years ago a few disgruntled fishermen decided to undertake an experiment. They found a stream that had NO SALMON and they set up a shed with multiple tables full of gravel and running fresh water thru them. Then they caught a bunch of wild salmon that were about to spawn (breed) and they took the eggs and sperm. Mixed it in a bucket. Buried it in gravel and protected those eggs from predation and a solid freeze... That is how the hatchery system was established. In the wild... less than 20 percent of the eggs are fertilized, and only 3-4 percent of the fry make it to the salt water. Harvesting the Eggs and Sperm of the salmon every end of the season the hatchery has a 97% fertilization rate and Over 80% of the fry are successfully released to the Salt water.
    Everything Eats Salmon... so it stands to reason that everything benefits from a successful salmon release. Adult Salmon eat young Herring... and Adult Herring eat salmon Fry. Everything happens in the wild. If a ton of salmon Spawn... A to of salmon will die... All the dead salmon feed the invertebrates and fertilize for successful plankton blooms. A Successful plankton bloom makes more krill (micro Shrimp) Whales, Herring and Salmon fry eat Krill... The more salmon... the more money... the more salmon... the more Alaskan Wildlife!

    Cool video. I really want to come get a job fishing next summer. Online sources are pretty vague about how likely it is to actually land a job as a deckhand with little experience. Most of the websites want a fee for more info or to connect you with the jobs. It seems a little shady to me. I duck hunt with a guy who went and did this in the 90s but he said that the salmon runs were stronger then and so was the demand for labor. He wasn't real sure how it would be now getting a job. I guess my question is should I be looking in a certain place to secure a job before I even go to Alaska or do I just have to go up and pound the docks looking for one; and if that is the case what are the chances of me having to come home never having found work?

    • @LostMexicanFilms
      @LostMexicanFilms  Před 5 lety +2

      Sorry it took so long for me to reply. Best bet is to fly into Cordova or Valdez with your camping gear. Walk the docks every morning 8-10am then again 12-3pm chances are you will meat captains that just fired their crew because they did not Show up to work and hire you on the spot.

      Ahh the lagoon. the Cadillac of fisheries. I did a season there in 2000 with Glen I think he's about 80 years now prob. retired in AZ. Lots of jellies near town makes for some comical fishing. Sadly all the captains all had to team up on just a few boats the following year. So most deckhands were not invited back. At least that's what they told me, LOL.

      @@LostMexicanFilms That's weird, I've done enough seining myself. it was 20 years ago but I don't recall that. They are not bleeding these fish. I do recall opening the hatch and seeing some of the fish still swimming around and the water showing no signs of turning even slightly red.
      But i guess you were there right? So I guess that's it.
      The reason I thought of a chemical is we used to sell cod for a fresh market Korea. The buyer gave us a powder we used to make a solution and we dipped the cod heads in this stuff that was supposed to make the gills look bright red for display at the market.

    And then we wonder why we are destroying our planet.
    I know its the most sustainable method, but its so hard to comprehend the amount that are being fished, and that its still sustainable.
    My thoughts was like.
    “A well that’s that then, no more fish in this area” 🤯🧐

      Yeah I actually edited yesterday but apparently it didn’t change the comment.
      It wasn’t meant like that, it just looks so extreme the amount it catches that you are left wondering. How can their still be fish in the sea🤔😂
      I believe you when you say its the most sustainable way to do it.
      Its just extremely hard to comprehend the amount that are sustainable.
      So no insult intended, my apologies.
