    Alaska fishing

    If you want to keep it simple fly in Anchorage, car rental, head down to Seward about 3 hour drive. The drive is awesome!! Seward is a pretty town. Just pick an outfit to go. There are plenty of hotels and places to eat. Make sure you buy your clothing in Anchorage though. Pic of the town This was the end of May Our boat only fit about 6 fishermen on it the way I wanted. We did head out to sea while rough and I almost puked!! Once fish on I was ok. But sitting there I had to watch the horizon the whole time. Once we switched over to salmon in the calm water I was good

  6. 1. Being in the out doors! Spending time with family. Becoming one with nature. 2. I like feeling the same way our ancesotros feel when they hunted. Plus I really enjoy the meat and like knowing my meat is completly organinc and not off a farm. 3. Game and Fish has done a great job to allow the environment and ecosystem to thrive for game animals because of game managment. There is very little high growth of animals and very little decline of population. --See www.-.biologycorner.com/worksheets/kaibab.html- Before 1905, the deer on the Kaibab Plateau were estimated to number about 4000. The average carrying capacity of the range was then estimated to be about 30,000 deer. On November 28th, 1906, President Theodore Roosevelt created the Grand Canyon National Game Preserve to protect the "finest deer herd in America." Unfortunately, by this time the Kaibab forest area had already been overgrazed by sheep, cattle, and horses. Most of the tall grasses had been eliminated. The first step to protect the deer was to ban all hunting. In addition, in 1907, The Forest Service tried to exterminate the predators of the deer. Between 1907 and 1939, 816 mountain lions, 20 wolves, 7388 coyotes and more than 500 bobcats were killed. Signs that the deer population was out of control began to appear as early as 1920 - the range was beginning to deteriorate rapidly. The Forest Service reduced the number of livestock grazing permits. By 1923, the deer were reported to be on the verge of starvation and the range conditions were described as "deplorable." The Kaibab Deer Investigating Committee recommended that all livestock not owned by local residents be removed immediately from the range and that the number of deer be cut in half as quickly as possible. Hunting was reopened, and during the fall of 1924, 675 deer were killed by hunters. However, these deer represented only one-tenth the number of deer that had been born that spring. Over the next two winters, it is estimated that 60,000 deer starved to death. Today, the Arizona Game Commission carefully manages the Kaibab area with regulations geared to specific local needs. Hunting permits are issued to keep the deer in balance with their range. Predators are protected to help keep herds in balance with food supplies. Tragic winter losses can be checked by keeping the number of deer near the carrying capacity of the range.------ 5. Propper Views and respect usually comes into play with forest lands and animals from people who hunt. This propper view and respect is usually handed down to offspring. 6. See #4 7. See 300 Rum answer 8. Yes of course, but you can't buy vension or elk anywhere. You help out game and fish, you past down tradations to family, and you eat pure organic meat, and you provide more money to animal preserves, managment more then any other 3rd party cause 9. See #4 as an example. Proper managment will keep animal herds and poplulations from drastic decline and inclines. 10. Furs and pelts are still in demand, just like purse leather, whale blubbler. Preditor hunting is also done by Game and fish when certain areas are in gulfed with preditors to manage game. Game and fish also hopes that people will take adavantage of the open season to help out heards. 11. This is a whole other topic. Ive meet and talked with these hunters who do this. The systems they have like in Africa really does help out the game managment. Even some animal activist have suggested to keep these hunters in place because there were more animals poached when these hunter game managment left the areas. For these activist it seemed like hunters were the lesser of the 2 evils in their views. On the plus side local villiages really do benifit from the hunters and meat from trophy kills. 12. The only thing is to compare it to other systems. Think of a slaughter house. Farmers breed cattle, sheep, chickens, pigs all in the purpurse to take to a slaughter house, shot in the head or neck cut hung upside down and then we enjoy the meat we buy at the store. Trophy animals for the most part are free range in high fence areas and live lot longer then farm animals. If I had to choose I would pick to be the breeded trophy animal. (just another way to look at it) 14. Im a relgious person! God intended that animals are for man kind to use for food, shelter, clothing. With respect of the animals. Take relgioun out I still believe animals are for man kind to use. Thanks to animals man kind has thrived "just as nature inteended" 15. Even if they changed the Law that we can kill game animals such as elk only for trophy and we don't need to harvest the meat I wouldn't be a part of this in the least bit unless I can harvest the meat. (its about respect for the animal see # 5) Trophy's are bonus to hunting, not the reason! I believe 95% of the hunters out there would agree with my answer.
