Thank you so much for showing us how to cut meat for smoking and drying. I grew up living a subsistence life. My Dad and brothers (all male family memers) hunted. I helped pack meat off mountains, if it was getting late and they needed help packing it out. We all fished. My Dad and Mom cut and fileted the salmon and my brothers cleaned them. Both my folks cut the game, although my brothers were raised to start the process early. My eldest brother went hunting with my dad at a very young age. One of my brothers ate fish eyes that were boiled, so that he could see the fish better when they were gaff fishing. Us girls had our own duties.We did fish, but when it came to gaff fishing our job was getting in the water and walking through the water, hopefully herding the fish towards the place they were supposed to appear. I had seven sublings. My Dad lived until the age if 94 and passed away this year. He was active his entire life and the only thing that slowed him down was when he started Dyalisis in his 90's. We never went hungry, even if we didn't always like what we ate. My Father was Nez Perce, Cayuse and Umatilla, with a tad bit of Scotch thrown in. I enjoy Yukon Men because it's real and I can relate to subsistence living. I love smoked fish. But my parents stopped eating fish that came out of the Columbia River because of the water quality, with all of it's pollutants. When I was growing up we fished in smaller, faster and colder rivers. My Dad grew up gaff fishing at Celilo Falls on the Columbia River until the government put dams in and it flooded the falls. Damn government. Hah! Have a good one Stan and thanks for the trip down memory lane!
Sometimes people post pictures or videos of their ferraris or bentleys and write "goodlife" but in my opinion you have the goodlife. Stay happy and never forget that you live in a great place with much nature and i wish you and your familiy best wishes. Your videos are great. The Day starts great if i see a new uploaded video! So please don quit filming. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Best regards from Germany Patryk
Great video Stan , watched you on Yukon men . Leaving the east coast , best gig you ever did . Your where you need to be and like . My pop was from.south jersey which is all like grown together subdivisions , and no hunting hardly allowed there no more . Deer everywhere , 30 miles from philly .im damn glad my dad married a southern gal and told him, he'll no she's not livin up there . So I've grown up swampin , hunting and fishing in Louisiana . Thank god ! I've been to anchorage once , but I sure wish back in my 20s I had come further inland there . I probably would have never left .
Love your video Stan. Please show some of your hunting , skinning and dressing of your moose hunt, beaver, wildlife game . Basic hunting skills we can enjoy also. I love the life you all live up there in Tanina, Alaska. I love the Yukon Men on discovery channel. Thank you for sharing your awesome and humbling video.
Stan Zurai, ti seguo da sempre , mi piace la tua operosità e la tua conoscenza, sei un grande e la tua famiglia è semplicemente fantastica. sono un pò invidioso, sopratutto per la vita nella natura più selvaggia che la vostra comunità vive. un abbraccio a te a tuo figlio alla famiglia intera.
Just found your channel by accident! Very informative. I am in my 40’s and looking to live a lifestyle like yours. I’ll be limited a bit by the regulations here in Canada. I so wish I could move to Alaska. Much easier to live your lifestyle. Thanks again for the videos and please keep them coming. So much knowledge is being lost in today’s society!
Holy cow that king meat looks so delicious! I can taste it! Lucky. That right there is one of the main reasons I.m moving to SE. Your knife skills are beyond skilled my friend...could watch you cut fish all day! Thanks for sharing!
thank you mr zuray! i just moved to alaska last last winter i am catching fish and putting them in the freezer but it dosent feel right i am trying to learn and if it wasnt for you i wouldent have gotten so much reel life information thank you.
I Love watching this video ! That fish hanging Always gets my mouth watering. Growing up, my mom`s brother would bring over 10 salmon they got from a stream (nothing like yours of course). Dad would cut them up, mom would always say we`re going to get botulism off them, and can them up. We never did get botulism, but always referred to them as botulism patties. To this day, salmon is still a treat to me.
@@fionaokeefe1906 I do everything in Montana I can, I don't live in the middle of Alaska. Why don't you shut your mouth, you accomplish nothing being an annoying ass. Go find Shrek and crawl back into your swamp
Thanks, to you Stan! From Texas right before Deer season. Your time to share the in and outs of fish fillet prep for smoking is appreciated. Seen you on TV before, you and your son. Good to see you working and sharing. Salute!!
Just got back from one of the few coastal rivers that had an open king season. My friends as well as the other villagers were busy cutting and drying fish for the year. My daughter who teaches in the village cheats and uses an electric smoker. But this is far better. What I grew up with in the PNW. Thanks.
MR Stan,i just love watching the Alaska Yukon men shoe try not to miss out on it...... Living out there i know that the life is hard work ,,but i love it and if i get the chance to live in Alaska were you guys are i will love too ...Watch you with your son on the show i wish that dad was in my life ,,,but i will be there for my kids god bless OR I LIVE IN TRINIDAD
It's been decades since I have had good smoked salmon. I lived in the Pacific NW and it was an almost daily thing. There they used alder wood for the smoke but different people had their own specific methods.
Stan thank you for the info really appreciate it. Just purchased some wind dried salmon from someone not going to mention any names but they sent us 4 oz for $30. I was shocked. Lol We live in Fla so just purchased a pound of wild Sockeye Salmon for $12 a pound followed your directions and came out great. Again thank you very much for the great videos.
WoW! Almost a 20 min video. Thank you so much Stan. I appreciate you sharing with us, Hope to see some more awesome uploads of your day to day life in the Beautiful Alaskan Country. :)
The only trouble with me when I cut fish is what kind of knife to use. Most of rhe time my knife gets dull right away, but I try. Will definitly try this method. I live in the cariboo. I learned the hard way self taught because we lost our culture. Just happen to find your show and love it. Your dog was also very entertaining in the background.
Stan Zuray : I subscribed. Watching you process fish is like watching a master chef in the kitchen, and listening to you describe what you are doing makes me miss Yukon Men. I'm looking forward to watching your other uploads. Thank you for this and I wish you good luck with hunting this winter.
Thanks for responding We fished mostly out of Nenana. But i did fish one season in your area at Severt Jacobson's camp shortly after Jacobson passed away. Must of been almost 30 years ago. Do you know of the old Jacobson 's camp above the rapids? Must be someone else camp by now. Im sure some of the old timers around Tanana remember him. Best fish in the interior in your area.Yukon King strips are the best.
Jake's camp is still standing but nobody there. His 18' baskets were in front of his camp for years and I copied his measurements on my earlier wheels sometimes. I used to come and help Russ Wood at his camp each summer for a few hundred fish each year - walk in 40 miles to Tanana from where we lived north of Tanana. Russ's camp was in sight of and below Rock Island on north side and he was a good friend of Jake. Only met Jake once with Russ.
Loved your book "Carry On" Stan... but it was far to short... I read it in 4 hours and wanted sooo much more!! Maybe another one? Also, I really like your videos too... you remind me of my grandfather who had a farm near Pittsburgh PA!
We just finished making it into an audio book and be available right on Amazon with the paperback and ebook. Credit goes to my friend and author Tim Attewell who actually does all this work.
Stan thanks for getting back to me. I will do that just cut off the meat from the skin after its dried out. If I may ask another question please. Should my fish snap when I bend it to make sure it is dry enough to not require any refrigeration? I want to make dried fish that has a 6 - 12 month shelf life.
A completely dried fish will kinda snap unless it is very oily like the best salmon we get here. On those the oil keeps the flesh kinda flexible yet they may have little moisture in them and be fine for storage without a freezer. Before freezers here people would put the strips and dry fish high in their sheds or smokehouses bundled up and covered with a gunny sack so air could still get at them somewhat. They would get real dried out and lose that fresh succulent taste over time but that was the way it was. The oils do get slightly rancid over time also but people ate them that way just fine. Many older people still like that over dried taste as they were brought up like that. Today most people find some freezer space and whether completely dried or not keep them in that way. I got dried fish hanging done in my smokehouse for over a month now that I'm eating on and not worrying about over drying all the above said.
Thank you. You make it really interesting in a very personal way. Brings back nice memories for me. Used to have a place on pamilco river in North Carolina and filleted flounder a certain way for my mother so she could stuff them with crabmeat. Loved doing that.
That smokehouse is packed! What a crazy blessing for the community. Thanks for sharing, though sorry your haul wasn't reds instead of kings. Also, wish you had done it truly traditional style with an ulu, but I guess the knife works too. Quyana!
Knife styles as well as Ulu styles have a traditional history among Athabascan natives going back thousands of years. (See Anchorage Alaska museum etc.) Steel knives and ulus in Alaska are all post contact.
Fair point. Thanks for keeping me honest on that one. Also, I should have recognized that your section of the Yukon is in Athabaskan country, especially given the use of the fish wheel.
I had to double check that one myself. As one moves to the mouth of the Yukon and into Coastal Yupik country the river actually experiences tidal influences and fish wheels don't work well in that up and down and upriver then downriver current I been told.
After all these years, still have that accent. Coming from MA myself, I can appreciate it although we don't have one from my end of the state. Thoroughly enjoying watching the video. Can't wait to visit your state in September flying out of Boston.
Love the smoke house. I wonder what real/good smoked salmon taste like. Never had it. Would have liked to see the smoker fired up and smokey. I have a small electric smoker and love doing pork and beef. I only use hickory. I thought about trying to do salmon for my wife. Great tip about the brine. Great video ! Thanks for sharing it ! It's very inspiring.
Thks Stan - good job on that lesson >> question - do you smoke them after 24 / 48 hrs of drying & the wood you use : is willow or do you mix your woods > thks again for sharing & have a blessed day - kirk out for now
What is the use of the srips as opposed to doing bigger fillets for smoking in a smoker? What do you and the others, do with all of this Dried Smoked fish? This is Amazing. Great Information.
It's like jerky - all ready to eat. Sits on our table all winter for people that come by and ourselves. Real handy for traveling food. What you see at fish camp is the making of a years supply for a lot of people.
So glad that I looked you up. We have been watching the new Yukon Man and we’re concerned about Joey not appearing so googled and came across that you had a you tube channel. So new subscriber here.
anyone that does not like your video are crazy ,it shows you how life is ,my hat is off love it !!!!!

I`m only a Dream the Ferrari guys eat at McDonald's
This is clearly not Stan's first salmon jerky Bar-B-Q...Truly knows his stuff.
Looks like a lovely camp. Great cutting! I bet the aunties are real fast
Great lessons on fish strips. Few points that make difference between failure and success. Salmon strip heaven in the smoke house
Every situation is different but what we do here can be changed and adapted to other places hopefully.
Thanks for taking the time Stan to share some of your knowledge .
Love your dry humor. Thanks for sharing your knowledge
I'm from Dorchester where humor is sarcastic and irreverent and dry. Or at least it was - now it is probably politically correct.
Great video Stan , watched you on Yukon men . Leaving the east coast , best gig you ever did . Your where you need to be and like . My pop was from.south jersey which is all like grown together subdivisions , and no hunting hardly allowed there no more . Deer everywhere , 30 miles from philly .im damn glad my dad married a southern gal and told him, he'll no she's not livin up there . So I've grown up swampin , hunting and fishing in Louisiana . Thank god ! I've been to anchorage once , but I sure wish back in my 20s I had come further inland there . I probably would have never left .
Now this type of content, how to do Alaskan stuff, is why I watch Alaskan based shows. Thank you Stan, great video-I subscribed.
Love your video Stan. Please show some of your hunting , skinning and dressing of your moose hunt, beaver, wildlife game . Basic hunting skills we can enjoy also. I love the life you all live up there in Tanina, Alaska. I love the Yukon Men on discovery channel. Thank you for sharing your awesome and humbling video.
Trying to get the family into making videos also of all that.
Thank you so much. You have taught us so much. I love your life. Keep on sharing these amazing videos. Aloha !

so beautiful picture and your life looks great!
Now , it's time to plunge into that kind of life for me!
Thanks for sharing Stan. Never gets tired watching your videos . Looking for the trap line too. 😊

Canada is better than Alaska in my opinion I would love to live in Quebec!
I’m happy to find you here sir! I hope you continue making episodes for your YM family out here in the world.
I like how you roasted the dried fish over open fire!
Better than bacon if put in a hot fry pan and heated.
Holy cow that king meat looks so delicious! I can taste it! Lucky. That right there is one of the main reasons I.m moving to SE.
Your knife skills are beyond skilled my friend...could watch you cut fish all day! Thanks for sharing!

I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Thank you for sharing.
Thumbs up if you would like to have a big bag of salmon strips dried and smoked to eat for the coming year!
Thanks Stan, grew up eating this stuff in Dawson, and always wondered how it was made. Now to try and replicate this somehow in my backyard smoker :)
I totally love watching this stuff cheers brother
Saw you on Discovery Channel a few times. Keep up the fine work Stan.

Thank you. You make it really interesting in a very personal way. Brings back nice memories for me.
Used to have a place on pamilco river in North Carolina and filleted flounder a certain way for my mother so she could stuff them with crabmeat.

Oh man I would love to be at fish camp with yall
After all these years, still have that accent. Coming from MA myself, I can appreciate it although we don't have one from my end of the state. Thoroughly enjoying watching the video. Can't wait to visit your state in September flying out of Boston.
Love the smoke house. I wonder what real/good smoked salmon taste like. Never had it. Would have liked to see the smoker fired up and smokey. I have a small electric smoker and love doing pork and beef. I only use hickory. I thought about trying to do salmon for my wife. Great tip about the brine. Great video ! Thanks for sharing it ! It's very inspiring.
the hickory is too strong i wood prefer apple wood for the salmon...
Love your vids, Stan. Wish I was there.
Great video , Thanks very much .
Hey Stan!!! I didn’t know you have your own channel. I watched you on TV!
Stan great video I was wondering if you made one for moose jerky .
Good idea.
Hope you and your family are well loved the show .
So much info! Thanks for taking the time to make an awesome video like this
So glad I stumbled across your channel today Stan! Hello from New Hampshire (not quite Mass, but we're neighbors!)
Lived in Greenville for a year at a commune.
Nice area. We live about 40 miles east of there
Kudos on using that huge knife to take off ribs. Guess I'm still at the boning/filleting knife level.
Thks Stan - good job on that lesson >> question - do you smoke them after 24 / 48 hrs of drying & the wood you use : is willow or do you mix your woods > thks again for sharing & have a blessed day - kirk out for now
Dry just overnight or the next day to get the moisture off them then very light cold smoke for 2-3 weeks using cottonwood which is like aspen.
What is the use of the srips as opposed to doing bigger fillets for smoking in a smoker? What do you and the others, do with all of this Dried Smoked fish? This is Amazing. Great Information.
It's like jerky - all ready to eat. Sits on our table all winter for people that come by and ourselves. Real handy for traveling food. What you see at fish camp is the making of a years supply for a lot of people.
