We traveled to Sweetheart creek to fill our freezers full of Sockeye Salmon. This is a trip we make once a year and we catch enough fish in an hour to feed our families for a year. There is only one problem and that is the bears are also fishing for sockeye at the same place. You are literally fishing with the bears.

We are building a cabin in southeast Alaska. It’s an off grid cabin on an island near Juneau. We are towards making a homestead out here and becoming more sustainable through frugal living, hunting, fishing and gardening. Alaska homesteading is more than just words is a way of life. So if you are interested in moving to Alaska or the off grid life click the subscribe button and join us here at My Alaska Dream, where we show what it's like homesteading for beginners.
Living in Alaska is great, come with us and enjoy the experience.

That's awesome, can anyone apply for those substance permits?
what is the diameter of the cast net size he is using to catch those fish ?

@@AnAlaskaHomestead I am encouraged by this video to buy a cast net to be included in my Survival gear kit ! 🐟
To all the ignorant naysayers posting comments: this is a completely legal and sustainable process for SUBSISTENCE living. The residents of Alaska are allowed to hunt, fish, and gather what we need to live in our beautiful state to help offset the high costs of store-bought items barged here from the lower 48. We are not allowed to sell, barter, or trade these animals. We are allowed to proxy hunt and fish for the elders in our communities. If your answer is that no one should live in AK, my response is that anyone who wants to live in the lower 48 right now is nuts. Have you ever sat and thought about all the fuel that is burned, animals displaced or killed for making new farmlands, and packaging that ends up in landfills and oceans for the foods that you buy ALL YEAR LONG in the grocery stores? Stop your virtue signaling and realize that your existence costs this planet more than anything AK residents living a subsistence lifestyle ever will. AK Fish and Game staff work with wildlife biologists to set bag and annual limits determined by their census data. Where we live, we're allowed several deer per year, and do you know why? Because the deer population on our island is so high that hunters help keep the population in-check so that fewer deer starve to death over the winter. That's right. Animals in the wild don't have Disney fairy tail endings. They don't go to retirement communities when they get old, they don't turn into magical pixie dust that floats off to the stars; they die of starvation, predation, or disease. So maybe think a little more about the cost of your existence and get informed about that which you speak before calling anyone in my state gathering just enough food for their families greedy or a disgrace. Oh, and we also waste little to nothing of what we gather, as opposed to the 30-40% of food that the rest of the country wastes (www.fda.gov/food/consumers/food-loss-and-waste).
You tell ‘em👍
You have to realize most of the ones leaving those comments can’t even look down the front of their pants and tell which bathroom to use! They’re not the brightest bulbs in the chandelier! 😂
The beauty and bounty of Alaska is amazing.
I totally agree
What beautiful country. Safe and successful trip. Thanks so much for taking the time to share with us. Best wishes always.
Thank you D
Awesome. I'm from Ukraine, where we've been at war for three years. Every day, there are missiles, explosions. It's very frightening to live like this. Watching how you enjoy life, it's hard for me to believe that such peace exists in the world. It seems to me that there are no tranquil places left. Thank you for your video. It lifted my spirits.
we are fighting in an etrernal war we will pray for you and you for us!
I wish for the people of Ukraine a rapid end to hostilities and new found peace in your country. Best wishes from Western Australia!
@@brianohehir9515 Greetings to Australia from Ukraine. Thank you for the kind words. I haven't left the house for a month now. It's scary. But we've all gotten used to it. It's good that there's the internet, it helps diversify everyday life.
in my country ,indonesia ,salmon a little bit expensive,usd 15-16/kg
Peace be to you and your loved ones, in Jesus Christ name 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽💚💛❤️🕊, from Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹
*An Alaska Homestead* Bravo well done, thank-you so much for taking the time to bring us along. God Bless.
Thank you for coming along. I’m just happy my SD cards didn’t get corrupted like last year.
Mm
Kids - "what are we having for dinner tonight?" Parents - "How about some salmon?" Kids - "FFS - not AGAIN!!!!"
Smoked salmon is a treat for me tbh
The Salmon they have in the grocery in the States is inedible, just nasty tasting like Striped bass.
Yikes salmon worms.
@@jimmyfumbanks6081I think most of it is farm raised in the grocer stores. Only way to get good fish is to catch them yourself.
Oh the giant fish, the natural scenery is so majestic
This is a great program , Thankyou Brian , Hisea , Steve and Captain Funk , epic scenery . Men having fun .
Thank you Robert we had such an amazing time. I’m just glad we got it on camera this time.
That would be so much fun. I think you’d have ALMOST as much fun if you only caught a few fish. The river, wilderness, everything was and is just magical! I envy you my brother! I fished for salmon in Michigan rivers most of my life. (I’m 59) but the last almost 20 years I’ve lived in Australia, and miss my salmon rivers, and hunting.
That’s awesome. What made you move to Australia? I’ve always wanted to visit but never made it over there.
We had a blast and you’re right I would have been just as fun if we only caught a few fish.
So good to see you today. I have never seen fishing like that. Awesome. Fill up those freezers👍. Thank you for sharing. Say hi to Diana. Take care✌️🇺🇸
It’s a quick way to get a lot of fish.
I’ll tell her hi for you.
@@AnAlaskaHomestead Thank you Brian👍
Great video. A guy's got to live vicariously through your videos when he can. Thanks.
Thanks for watching.
So awesome! I was in Mackinac City, Michigan during the Alaskan King Salmon run.
I was just camping with some friends but we went into town where the boats and men fishing were and i saw a guy walking with several HUGE salmon on a chain. I yelled over to him and said " you got some!" He said " Sure did...you want one?" Of course i said yes! i got about 10 really big fillets off that Salmon after i got it home. A friend knew someone who processed it for me for a few of the fillets! Was a beautiful thing☺ Good job fellas
That’s awesome. I love sparking yo great memories for people.
@@AnAlaskaHomestead I can truly say that was the best salmon i have ever had 💗
There is no Alaska Salmon in Lake Michigan, there is King Salmon, however.
@@tannenbaumgirl3100 They said They were Alaskan King...so that's what i called them. The King Salmon is the largest of the Alaskan species....so maybe that's why they called them that? IDK. There are 4 diff types of salmon in the great lakes...and they are all delish!
@@colleenc236 Thought you were talking about the Salmon run around Lake Michigan.
Great video....Thanks for taking me along!
Thank you 👍
Just incredible! Way to stock up on the Goods B! Fun and safe trip... can't ask for more! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks buddy. We had such a great trip. Glad we got it on film this year.
Thanks Brian! You Three really nailed it, you will be eating really good for a long time, it was awesome to watch!👍👍👍✌
Thank you Frederick. We still need to get some coho and halibut.
Yall are living the life I dream of but was never able to live beings my wife and kids aren't into the natural and off grid homesteading life but we all make sacrifices for your families and that was mine great video yall
I hear you. Fortunately for me my wife was totally on board for this.
Beautiful!!! Thank for sharing with us your great outing from Central Florida.
Thank you Robert
These guys are living life!
Trying to👍
I have always felt Southeast Alaska was truly Paradise clean clear water and great people like you and your pretty lady.
It is a magical place here.
Wow!! What an awesome fishing trip. Every time the net was thrown into the water you caught salmon. I would have loved to be there. You have plenty of salmon to last for a while. You guys was fantastic, no injuries, no bears, just the water, you and the salmon. Great videos and thanks for sharing. Bye bye for now!!
It was an amazing time with two good friends. Can’t ask for more than that.
This is the most insane fishing ive ever seen. Great job guys!

your net not bigs mister.
in indonesia a fiserman have a net bigs
I was trying to figure out by the footage about where you are? I have worked on small tour boats throughout southeast, AK on multiple day’s trips all around Admiralty, chichigof, Baranof islands, prince of Wales, etc… have to say on a clear day Tracy arm or fjords terror are tough to beat yet I have never seen so many humpbacks in one area as just outside of Kake right by five fingers lighthouse! No words for it!😉👍
Is that music from the big lez show
whare can i buy a cast net like that?? whats the name of it all the cast nets iv seen the mesh it to small? so what are u using ?
Now that's called fishing for food !!! Great video of the process of cast netting!!!
at 5:45 when he says I got a nightmare about this spot I felt that.....That same nightmare happened to me a few years back a super high tide rolled in and popped my anchor and luckily I was able to catch a ride to my boat before it took the turn to the Whiting river entrance. Great video my friend keep up the awesome content!
😂 I’ll show this to Funk. He drug an anchor on night and had to go find his boat.
Hope you and the fam are doing good.
Fantastic friends !! Fantastic sponsors !! Fantastic video !!
Living the Dream !!
Cheers from POW !
Definitely a worthwhile trip. Plus it’s just a great time fishing with these two guys. Hopefully your freezer is getting full👍
Next you guys need to go after some black cod..hopefully with electric reels..Mmm butter fish !!
@@redwood9741 I have an electric reel, I just need to get some line on it and head out to 1000+ ft😂
@@AnAlaskaHomestead Well there you go..I will be looking for the video ..
Looked like a good time & filled the pantry. 👍 I love Salmon. My daddy use to fish for the silver kings when I was growing up. (In Washington state)
We still need to get a few coho and some halibut for the year but this definitely fills up the pantry.
One thing I love about making videos is bringing back fond memories for others. 👍
@@AnAlaskaHomestead yes it sure does bring up fond memories for sure.
This was One Hell of a Fishing Trip, Oh How, I wish I could have been along for this Adventure of a Life Time, Wonderful, Fun Video
Thanks Robert, it was a great trip.
Great, now I want salmon for breakfast.
😂 we’ve been eating a lot of salmon the last few days.
Wow Brain, This was another awesome video, enjoyed watching you all throwing your nets in and catching the fish...And all the scenery was beautiful...
Thank you Pat. It was an amazing day with amazing friends.
Amazing! That's a great freezer full of good stuff! You had a beautiful day and great success! And no bear. Steve's poor hands! What's your favorite way to make salmon? I like brown sugar and honey. Have a great week!
Brown sugar and honey is delicious
Good Haul 👍
Thank you 😊
Great trip!! Beautiful fish and scenery!!
Thank you Donald
Glad to see there's still a few sane people left somewhere in the States. There's big problems in the DC lower 49 .
Ha I see that. Thanks for watching.
Glad you got them so fast. It looked like you were going to be sore the next day though because it was so fast. Do you give the unusable parts to the chickens ? Great that you got a sponsor !!! I was wondering if you had to shoot a bear what happens ? Do you get to keep it for the meat ? Diana was probably sore but happy as well canning all those fish. I don’t remember you showing us your smoker set up. Thanks for sharing. CONGRATULATIONS !!
We will be using the carcass for crab bait and the heads will go on the halibut skate.
We take both bear spray and a pistol for a last resort tool. The answer is no it’s a pain if you have to shoot a bear out of season. Lots of work and paperwork and you can’t keep any of the bear.
We will show some caning and smoking with some coho. We were in mass production mode😂 trying to get all the fish knocked out before the ice melted in the cooler.
We are both pretty tired😂
Fake news
We don’t have like this in the desert
So it must be fake !!
Iam so jealous
@@waleedalgharabally9385 lol...may allah bless you brother!
Damn so many questions in one comment haha ppl going nuts lol

Looked like an amazing time. Stay safe and thanks for sharing!
We had a blast. Thank you guys.
Like 👍
Wow!
Amazing and fantastic sharing friend
Thank you
Your videos remind me of Simple Living Alaska. It would be fun to see a lot of the Alaskan homesteaders some kind collaboration.
We did a collab a few years ago before their channel blew up. Ryan and Von from Wildwood off grid Alaska have some stuff in the works. They may come down here this winter and I my go up their for a moose hunt next year. I hope everything works out.
@@AnAlaskaHomestead go up there? You an Alaskan wannabe huh???
Great way to fill the freezer or can a ton of salmon! Thanks for taking us along.
That’s the truth
Once I finish nursing school I plan on living up there for a bit! Idk if I’ll live there my whole life but I want to try that lifestyle before I die
Alaska always needs nurses so you’ve picked the right profession.
That's so great! Happy for you! Enjoy!
Thank you Janice.
I love HiSea products! Great that they sponsored you.
We’ve worked with them before and their products hold up very well.
Nice,.. When mother nature blesses you like this. Bon Appetit.
Thanks
Thanks, you guys sure were lucky. ✌🏻👊
Definitely brought the fish home that day.
An awesome video, shame they didnt have any underwater go Pro video showing how they actually get caught in the net?
Now that was one heck of a fishing trip! Gonna be some awesome eating going down! Thanks for the fishing trip. Stay safe and have a great week!
Thank you CB. We definitely brought back some fish on that trip. We always do. You guys take care.
Well done! Absolutely gorgeous scenery! Not sure I would have scrambled right up in there w that bear around!! 🫣🐻
They typically stick to themselves. That bear must have been really hungry for those peoples fish.
Once apon a time I did a bit of part time eel fishing in New Zealand, 1989 to 2008. Few months each summer never more than 6 ton a year (6,000 kg). It fitted in well with the off season for main job trapping fur. Eel fished in very similar types of stream using fyke nets. Some times in waders, often no waders, very selective where I would use the waders as if you fell into a stream like the one shown & they filled with water you could not move in them or swim, like being in a straight jacket in water. Where the men were casting from would be a spot I'd not risk standing in waders! Too dangerous! Had a couple of very close calls in such spots myself. I Slipped in the water in waders. Once with 100 kg of live eels tied to me (in 15 kg mesh bags). Once with a net & net setting tools in hand. If you do that in waders & live like I did you tend to 1) Believe in God 2) Never ever risk a repeat performance! & If I was catching those salmon I would have for sure used the waders in the shallow bits, sure, but taken them off, left the boots on, to do the casting! As to those eels, here in NZ Government regulation has destroyed the commercial eel fishery. No problem to catch a 100 kg a day. But legal regulations make it near impossible to harvest or farm them. It should be a billion dollar farming industry here as we have massive amounts of elvers (unlike the rest of the world) plus heaps of water on our farms with a million farm ponds empty of farmed fish. A heap of free meat (wild pest animals like deer turkey canadan geese possum wallaby). But OUR VERY Different fishing laws; if you throw a cast net over salmon, here in NZ, were we have your King Salmon. Then you would likely go to jail or at the very least pay thousands of dollars in fines for doing so!
That is one epic place! Magical! Thanks for showing it!
Magical is that a great choice of words. Thanks for watching.
That was quite a haul !! It has been many years since I went cast netting. Thanks for letting me tag along !!
Thanks for coming. I’m still working on my technique but it’s getting better👍
@@AnAlaskaHomestead Ya gotta throw some kidneys before you turn em into full circles. LOL !!. Try putting a little spin on it with your wrist as it leaves your hand.
@@joecucch8261 ha I’ve been referring to them as tacos but kidney beans works too. There is definitely an art to getting a nice circle.
Well done Guys! What a great day fishing. I call that living Free
Hey Rich. That was a great day with friends.
How incredibly ideal that whole situation was! What a trip!
Thanks KBC
beautiful sharing my friend watching from Malaysia
That’s awesome. Thank you and I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Looks dangerous! You gotta know what your doing ! Awesome video
Great fishing day. You 3 did well! And no bears this time to worry about!
Thank you Pat. We had such a good time and coming back with a full load of fish is always a good day.
Great video Brian! What a fun day. I used to love fishing there. You know they’re in thick when you’re hauling in 2 and 3 at a time.😁 see you next time.
Man it’s so much fun up there. This was my second trip and I look forward to many more trips with the Steves.
@@AnAlaskaHomestead I bet the bears were hunting for kings or silvers, more meat and fat for them. The bears know where to get those. Follow the bears!
Oh that looks like fun! You sure do live in a beautiful place 👵👵👵
We had a blast
Truly amazing! I didn’t know it was legal to do this…why do so many other channels in Alaska waste time with other methods when trying to stock up…this seems to be the most effective and efficient way
It varies by area. Some areas you can only dip net, here you can do both cast or dip net.
What a fishing trip. Salmon dinner for days is just perfect. Thanks for sharing a nice video. You guys are awesome!
Thanks
Love to watching fishing videos, I've been fishing for, well never mind how long 🤪, but never salmon, usually pike, trout, muskie, bullheads. Matter of fact took the grandkids fishing today, comical the grandsons ( ages 12 & 14) didn't catch any, but our granddaughter (11) caught 5 😂 and the boys were not happy at least we don't have to compete with bears yikes.. Congratulations on your catch. Be Blessed. 😊🇺🇲
Sounds like you all had a great day out on the water. Maybe not the grandsons😂 Hope you have a great evening with the family.
Wow! Nice catch. I have visions of huge platters of fried fish. 😊. Wish I had a couple of those beauties!
It’s my first time on your channel and I am just in awe of the abundance of these beautiful fish in your special part of the world. They are such good eating as well as providing a great experience for you to enjoy together. I need to revisit my bucket list….
Thank you John. We do live in a beautiful area of the world.
😂 Catching was the EASY part🎉
What a great fishing trip! Lots of work and lots of fun...looked like a perfect day😃
We couldn’t have asked for a better day. No one else was there and we didn’t have any bear run ins. The crew that got there after us did though.
Oh, and salmon, fission up in Alaska way up north, and had the best time of my life. I was the only woman out of nine guys at a camp in the middle of nowhere. It was so much fun.
You had quite the selection I bet you never felt more beautiful in your life not hating just wishing I was out fishing with nine women.
@@mightyfraserriver977you just couldn’t help yourself could you? 😂
another great video enjoyed seeing all that fishing look forward to the next one hope we can see what your garden did this year
Thank you Shirley. Sounds like it’s time for a garden update video👍
You guys are really living the dream! I love Castnet fishing. You got the trifecta there Alaska, Castnet fishing, sockeye salmon.👍🏼👍🏼
We feel blessed everyday.
I'm a newcomer to your channel, and am loving trying to get caught up. My brothers and I fished Sweetheart Creek years ago, and it is so much fun to recall that experience as I watch this video. I stood at the base of the waterfall you can see upstream from where you're casting, fish so thick you felt as though you could walk across the water on their backs. We live in Wyoming, but my wife is from Juneau, and she's beginning to tire of me telling her to pack her things, which I've pretty much done non-stop since finding your channel. Such fun!
😂 that’s awesome.
This looks like 2nd lvl at Sweetheart Creek near Snettisham. What a great place to limit out on your favorite Sockeye salmon. Your spot is the best one for keeping the brown bears away from you and your catch.
It won’t be long before there is nothing left
Blame the correct offender which is the Trollers and draggers!!!
Yeah. People have been dishing there for over 100 years since Juneau was discovered... won't be long now... you know nothing of what you spew on the internet.
We protect our own food supplies up here bud!
The salmon spawn and die....HELLO😂😂😂
Wow that’s a lot of fish for each of you! Thanks
Coming back with that much fish makes the trip worth it.
It looks like they are way over their limit taking that many fish.
I’m 61 I am upset that I can’t afford to do these fishing trips and these sponsors just hand you everything . Hope you had fun!
We had a blast. Cost analysis is the name of the game. $100 in boat fuel and the sponsored chest waders cost $100. We landed 100 salmon that weighed roughly 10 lbs per fish at $10 a pound. I think we came out ahead of you do the math.
Where you from
Bearded man, gentleman. camera crew, small men; conclusion, hikers and fisherman are the coolest.
Crazy! Every cast, fish.
It was a good haul.
Wow... that is fishing at its best! Have a super week!
I thought you’d like it. Hope you have a great week too.
There's nothing quite like the taste of freshly caught fish. Just imagining what it was like 1 or 2 hundred years ago. The caught fish or trapped them to feed their family or they went hungry
Thank you Brian for this video
Thanks for watching Pat. Have a great week.
What a grand expedition. 🐟
It is indeed👍🎣
It makes perfect sense.... the salmon are looking to go up.. and find a nice lil waterfall and pool.. to rest in.. and there they sit.. Hoop net over the top.. fish. American Indians are proud you figured it out.
Oh I was smiling the whole time..
Great video..!!
Man I was really hoping you could have went on this trip with us. You would love it.
This was a lot of fun great job catching those fish. The surrounding are beautiful
Thank you
WOW! Now that's some fishing!
🤙
That looked like alot of fun but yet hard work. You three did real good.
Thank you. That may have been the easy part. For the next day and a half we processed the fish.
Well those fish were beautiful. My sister loves salmon. Me not so much. I guess I need to meet a pure bred Alaskan who knows how to cook salmon the right way over a hot open camp fire 🔥.
Another wonderful adventure. That river is beautiful. It’s kinda funny…I was eating salmon, while watching this. Sadly not fresh. Nothing beats fresh!
Ha well we had a couple of jars that didn’t seal so it’s salmon for us for the next couple of days 😂👍
Wow, great catch. We eat Salmon quite often and so much enjoy, but I bet the flavor from fresh is the best ever. Lucky you🌸.
They are tasty 😋 when they are cooked right out of the ocean. Thanks for watching Robin.
Congratulations! Great trip!
Thank you
Wow! What an awesome haul! Definitely worth the hike for a reward like that! 🎊🍾🎉
That is for sure. One day gives us fish for a year. Can’t beat that.

Southeast Alaska is a beautiful place. We love it here.
Your right but the experience of being there and actually catching them makes all the difference . Great Video and thanks for replying , Other channels wouldn't reply . They don't really care about their subs .
The experience is definitely the exciting part. It’s all about the caring 👍
Wow, talk about an epic day.
That's great to have it canned and smoked. Cool to have it last for a year!
Definitely enough salmon for the year. We need a few more coho and some halibut to fill the freezer.
