Ninilchik, Charter Fishing.



We are staying at the Alaskan Angler RV Resort. Here four fishing boats go out on twice daily charters in the Cook Inlet. Jannich had the opportunity to go along one day and his fish are displayed here 2nd and 3rd from the left He is also pictured here being shown how to fillet halibut.

The water was very choppy and a couple of the other people on the boat got sea sick. The fishing expedition is at least 6 hours in length and when people return they look like they have had a full day.

Ninilchik is a well known area for salt water king salmon fishing and record halibut catches. A record sport-caught 466 lb. halibut was pulled from Cook Inlet at Ninilchik. Jannich was happy with his catch. After filleting them they weighed 53 lb. Ruth is planning to go fishing with one of the boats on a salmon charter out of Seward and a halibut trip from Ninilchik. (After she picks up a supply of gravol).
Many people leaving on charters use the motion sickness patch plaster behind the ear.
