For me yes a limit cause I’m a white boy. But my grandaughter is half native and technically she can fish for subsistence.

I have not fished in years but there is a limit per person per day set by Fish and Game. From what I am hearing this years salmon run may be quite good, in years past its been heavily restricted or even closed.

Mostly though I think I can can legally fish a dozen per day, but where I fish its almost shoulder to shoulder combat fishing, no bait allowed, no roe. Funny thing is sometime a sparay of WD40 will attract a fish, go figure.

My largest was a 35 pounder King, I don’t play fair and I use expensive Spectra line, I’ll just horse the fish in.

When the SHTF there will be no enforcement, except from the landowner if you are on private property.

Reading all of your posts and the others directed to you, I see that it will be your private property. Also you are talking about currently, but when the SHTF you only would want what you need anyway. I thought about moving to Alaska, but I do not think I could handle the cold.

Brrrrrrrrr.

"but where I fish its almost shoulder to shoulder combat fishing"

lol...the first time we drove to Alaska to fish...no plans...just seat of our pants type fishing....and of course, we knew nothing about where to fish or what equipment to bring....so we packed up our heavy duty rods and went...

we ended up fishing right in Ship Canel.....all day and all night people were there...families...couples..

each person had about 6 feet to themselves...you basically threw your bait in a few feet to your left, and the current would take it down the river a few yards and then you had to retrieve it and slap it down into the water again...

believe it or not....it was the MOST fun ....people were happy...people caught big fish....myself, a nice 35 pounder which strangers had to help me pull in because hubby was trying his luck on the other side of the river....

occassionally you would see the real fishermen..the natives mostly...go out in their waders and fight a big fish 100yards or so down the river...just amazing...

this was basically in downtown Anchorage......
