Anchorage Combat Fishing

If you're a Florida sportsman, wait until you see this! Salmon fishing in Anchorage--downtown. Seriously, this creek flows right through downtown and I could pick up a rock from where I was and through it and hit a 5-star hotel. And a 4-star hotel. (Not in the same throw.)

So, these guys elbow their way into the creek to catch a salmon. I struck up a conversation with one of the locals about the sport. He gave me everything I need to know to try it myself. I can't wait!

In Ship Creek (the one here), the guys are fishing for King Salmon. You can only catch one per day, and you have to have a special stamp on your license.

I hear the game wardens are crazy here, so make sure you know all of the rules before you start combat fishing! I know I'm studying.
