NEW ADF&G VIDEO SHOWS HOW TO FISH FOR KLUTINA RIVER RED SALMON

The Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADFG), Division of Sport Fish recently produced an educational video, How to Fish for Klutina River Red Salmon.


In this twelve-minute video, Scott Maclean, fishery biologist, shows how to fish for red (sockeye) salmon in the Klutina River. In this video, Scott covers:


• the tackle and techniques for the ‘plop, drift, pluck’ method using spin fishing, bait casting, and fly fishing gear.
• legal access to the lower Klutina River.
• what is a legally hooked fish versus an illegally hooked fish.


The video will most benefit those who have never, or rarely, gone fishing for red salmon, however, seasoned anglers may also learn a new trick or two.


Get started on becoming a red salmon angler today by watching the video at: https://vimeo.com/127314584
