This time round Bill & I decide, “lets hit the Russian River one last time this season.” While there we thought it would be a good idea to try and teach people the “flossing technique”. Some people would confuse with for “snagging” IT’S NOT! Snagging is not only illegal in most areas of the state, for the majority of the year, but it also takes ZERO SKILLS to do… just a heavy hook and water flogging… NO, “Flossing” requires a great deal of skill & practice and a great deal of patience, If you’re new. With this technique you’re more likely to fair hook your fish so you don’t have to return them potentially harmed and damaged. We encourage you to learn this skill as you will spend more time fighting fish and less time fighting snags and not filling your freezers.

-P.S.A.-
Also. We have started noticing as the tourism returns to our state some popular fishing spots have collected some garbage. So please be courteous and take your trash with you. It uglies up Alaska’s beauty and attracts wildlife. In addition, many fishing spots have used fishing line and tackle dispensers nearby. So, If ya see some, be a pal and pick it up. Thank you.
