Another anchorage worth mentioning

The last place we stopped before getting to Sitka was Schultz Bay. It was a beautiful little achorage tucked in behind a small island. I decided to blow the dust off the fishing gear and see if we could catch anything. Well, the last time we were in Alaska, we learned to jig for halibut so I put on a lure and started jigging from the boat. It was only seconds before we pulled up a small halibut (3lbs or so). Then we pulled in another one (which Ann wanted to keep). This one was probably 5lbs or so. Pulled in a couple of rock fish including a few ling cod. This all happened in probably an hour or so. Wow! What fun. Released everything but the one halibut that Ann cleaned and made soup with the next day. While fishing, there was a sow grizzly and her two cubs feeding along the shore. We were so close that we could hear them talking to each other. This was a great place to visit and is on our list of favorites.
