Alaska Fishing Trips

Here is one Alaska Fishing Trips story you've just got to read. It's a true story and if you don't believe me, just call up this Alaska Fishing Guide Service and ask them.

It happened back in 2006 when two brothers planned a Alaska Fishing Trips, hoping like crazy they could catch some salmon and halibut.  

The punchline is not the fact that they had a very successful Alaska Fishing Trips, they did.  But it cost them a fortune to have their catch mailed back home.

No, this is one of the Alaska Fishing Trips stories you won't believe, but trust me it's very true.

Alaska Fishing Trips Story Continued

The brothers didn't fish in a river, they used a charter service and drove for about a mile into the ocean to find their salmon.  Everyone on the boat caught their limit and all 3 fisherman wanted the prized halibut.

And this is where our TRUE story begins.  As you know, there is always one of "those guys" in every crowd and this is not exception.  The brothers had to put up with this know-it-all for an entire day.  From trying to keep his breakfast down, to doing things totally opposite of what the skipper wanted, this guy was a total idiot.

My brother in law was the first to catch a halibut and the biggest.  It was only 25 pounds but it still took him a LONG time to finally get it into the boat.  His brother caught the second halibut and the "know-it-all" still had not caught a thing.

On this particular Alaska Fishing Trip, the know-it-all actually tried to wrestle the fishing pole from my brother in law as he was trying to set the hook on the next fish. The darn skipper almost konked the guy over the head to get him away from Dave.

Before the fish was even in the boat this knuckle head let out his line and was halibut fishing again.  With steam coming from both ears and nose, the skipper politely told the guy to reel up. He wouldn't listen so the skipper cut his line and really pissed this joker off.

Well, as you can probably guess the guy started fishing again and finally hooked into a halibut.  The has no clue how to land a fish and the skipper politely told him how to do it and also said: "if you lose my gear, you'll pay for it". Well, he kept doing what he was doing and it happened.  The rod went flying overboard and it was lost.

I know what the skipper wanted to do, but he basically told the guy he's out $250 and would collect when they hit the docks.  The guy made some up some lame brain excuses and finally told him, all I got is a check, hope you can take checks?

About that time, Paul hooked into a halibut and had a hell of a time bringing it up.  About 20 minutes later he had it uup to the boat and guess what?

There was this line wrapped around it, so Paul started pulling on it and finally found the rod that knucklehead lost.  True story and if you don't believe me, give us a call and I'll connect you with these guys.

Basically Paul caught two fish, saved a guy $250 and kept both fish.  Sure knucklehead wanted his fish but Paul never gave it to him and I'm sure the skipper wouldn't have given it him either.

Hope you enjoyed and like I said before, this is one that took me about 4 weeks to verify and believe.
