November 2009 Newsletter

Monday, March 18th, 2013

Deep Creek Fishing Club  Newsletter  I, 2009
Warm greetings to you, from Alaska 

A big thank you to our loyal customers, and to our staff for your support through the 2009. We are happy to report another successful fishing season.
 

Halibut Fishing was over-the-top!
The 2009 halibut season proved to be amongst the best, bringing in some of the largest average catches ever. Captain Skye ran the Seeker, with the help  of Roger while Captain Steve captained the Shooter with deck hand, Gabe.
 
NEW CLUB RECORDS: 
 

1552# halibut.aug

Jeff Holloway, Walter Martin, Julie & Dennis Aldridge, Jon Easter & Butch Anderson and Linda & Darin Doucette  pose with their incredible catch of 1552 pounds.

A highlight of the season, this was one of our biggest 2-boat catches: a total of 15 fish, 12 over 100 pounds for a total of 1552 pounds. (August 17, 2009)

Halibut969#

We also had our largest 1-boat catch with the Petrochem Party on August 11, 2009: 8 fish weighing in at 969 pounds. Both are Club records.

We caught 5 fish over 200 pounds! 

 

There were so many great halibut catches, that we will put together a separate Newsletter, devoted just to those stories.
 
Good news for Cook Inlet …
the 2010 limit for halibut is still 2 per person per day.
 
Whereas SE Alaska is still limited to 1 halibut per person per day. 

Mt Redoubt

… Thar she blows  …
 
Mt Rebdoubt erupted 5 times this season.

Mt Redoubt, rises 11,060 feet above sea-level and is one of 4 volcanic peaks across from the lodge. Cook Inlet separates the lodge from the Alaskan Range by about 30 miles as the crow flies. This season, Mt Redoubt created quite a stir, boiling from within and eventually erupting several times through the spring. The first eruption occurred March 22, and then March 26 & 27-28. Fortunately for us, the wind blew the ashes in a southerly direction, so Ninilchik and the Lodge received only a dusting of ash … just enough to accelerate spring’s growing shoots to turn green.
 

 

king.todd  Kasilof King Salmon

This was the year for captain Todd, who did an outstanding job on the Kasilof River,bringing back limits almost every day for both June & July. We haven’t seen king fishing this good in many years!
 

Chinook fishing was off on most other rivers because spring was extremely warm & dry (the warmest and driest on record, in fact), but we still manged to haul them in.

Silver Salmon

 
Silver fishing was spectacular with limits in the ocean from mid-July to mid-August. They were not as large as they have been in the past, but the numbers were staggering.    (more news to come in Newletter II)

 
 

Gallop.YE09 Yellow-Eye

Yellow-eye were prolific this season. We caught many over 20#, and received limits many days.

 
The fishing was so terrific that we have a new world record pending for this beautiful trophy.

 

 27 lb yellow-eye caught on 20# test by Chris Gallup of California, July 2, 2009.
 
 

Turbine Beaver

 Ninilchik Airport Runway is Fixed
What great news to learn that the runway at the local airport in Ninilchik had been repaired! As a result the Turbo beaver was able to land there again, saving us a drive to Homer and making each fly-out adventure so much easier. 

 

 

Seafood tower.09

The Staff of 2009
We were happy to have welcomed back world-class chef, Jack Yoss, and his lovely bride, Meghan both of whom did an outstanding job providing delicious, 5-star meals. Brooke Wescott was our licensed massage therapist for 09 and a lovely addition to the crew. Sarah was back for another season as our waitress, Deanna, the mayor is still going strong, Diana continued to do great working keeping the cabins clean. Captain Todd, Captain Skye and Gabriel provided first class service to guests as guides and deckhand with Roger maintaining the lodge while helping out as a guide and deckhand when needed.  Thank you all for your diligence and support this summer.
 

 

Max.09Max

Max turned 13 this July making him 91-years old in human years. He may be grayer and a little slower than he once was … but  he is still meeting guests with hello-woofs and a wagging tail.
 

 

Looking ahead to 2010 – Bookings have been extremely strong, with many dates already sold out –

 

Please call us now so that you can get the time frame that works best for you.

 
Sincere best wishes,
 

Steve and Vivian

September 2005 Newsletter


Silver Salmon …

Garrett&bear

Garrett shares the creek with a brown bear as he
fights a silver salmon.

Garrett & Dede Bouton have been fishing with us for
10 years and have enjoyed a variety of Alaskan
adventures throughout that time. They like to come
in the fall to catch the feisty silver salmon using top
water flies.


… and Bears …

SeptYogi

Brown bears will fish for as long as they can, feasting
on the rich salmon until they’ve gained enough weight
to see them through hibernation.



… and more Silvers

SeptSilvers05McNaughton

Garrett and his party caught hundreds of chrome
bright silvers in five different fly-out rivers from
Kodiak, to Katmai to Prince William Sound.


Heli-Fishing for Silvers

Wayne Coleson holds up a silver salmon caught on a
fly rod and using a top-water fly. During his stay,
he and his group used the helicopter extensively,
visiting many pristine fishing areas.



” Silvers … cast after cast, after cast. The best yet!”

“This was one of the best days I’ve seen for silvers!

The mouth of the river had been blocked by a large
gravel bar preventing the salmon from entering it.
The water levels were just not high enough to let
them in.

Then the day before we landed a large rainstorm
raised the water level up, opening the mouth and
thousands of silvers in to the river system.

The fish were extremely aggressive, and we caught
them cast after cast after cast.”

Captain Crusty



Panoramic Scenery

Glacier viewing

Taking advantage of the fly-out option, is a great
way to see Alaska. En route to fishing you’ll find
yourself in awe of the beautiful landscapes, towering
peaks and endless fields of glacier upon glacier.

fishing friends. We would like to thank you folks for
kindly droppin’ in. You’re all invited back again to this

hospitality …”


… it’s more than fishing …

Sunset

” … new friendships – that’s the greatest trophy of
all! Thanks for the memories!”
Jonathan Novak


Camaraderie

PorchSept05

Apart from the fishing, what our guests enjoy most is
the spirit of camaraderie that is so much a part of
Deep Creek Fishing Club.

Many thanks to all of you for making our 2005 season
a resounding success. We are happy to have been a
part of the memories you created while you were
here.

If you have any suggestions, a fishing story or a
picture you’d like to share, do tell us. We’d love to
hear from you.

More Highlights for the 2005 season

August Highlights

Matt Streeter landed this 311-pounder on his last day

Largest Halibut : 311 pounds

Matt and Dave Streeter were visiting the lodge on a
father-son trip when Matt reeled in this 311 pounder.

This was the second halibut caught in the 300-pound
class lodge for the season. The other was caught in
June.

Of the catch, “Doc Dave” Steeter said: “A fish of a
lifetime on Matt’s first trip to Alaska. Great fishing,
great staff, a trip we relive almost daily.

Hope to be back in 2007 with 2nd son, John. Have to
eat my way thru 600 pounds of fillets first.”

What a catch!

Halibut and Silvers

The Huskeys and the Roberts reeled in this great
catch of halibut and silver salmon while fishing in
Cook Inlet. It was the Huskeys first time at the lodge
and all Terry wanted was to catch a 30-pounder.She
could hardly believe her luck when she reeled in these
huge fish.

433 pound salmon shark

433-pound Shark!

This was definitely Bill Huskey’s lucky day! He was
aboard the “Seeker” with Capt Matt Kruzick and Roger
Wiste when he hooked in to this monster. The story
in his own words …

“At the end of the second day of fishing we were
bringing in the lines to head back, when I hooked on
to something that felt completely different than what
a halibut bite feels like.

After 20 – 30 minutes of trying to bring it up, it came
to the surface about 50 feet from the boat. When I
saw it I knew it was a shark and the biggest one I
had ever seen, let alone caught.

This was the second day of very successful halibut
fishing. My wife and I had each caught one over 150
lbs and three each 70 to 100 lbs each.

I have fished all my life around San Diego and Baja
areas, even working on a small for hire boat as a
summer job when I was in High School. Needless to
say this is one fishing trip my wife and I will never
forget.

The shark BBQ’s as good as the halibut and we have
already made reservations for next year with Deep
Creek Fishing Club again.”
Bill and Terry Huskey

A banner day on the salt

Saltwater Fishing at its Best

What a day! Limits of halibut, silver salmon,
ling cod and black rock fish. All these fish were
caught in 50 feet of water within a 3 hour period.
Talk about action!

“I’d like to anchor there permanently!”, said Capt
Crusty. We had action like this the day before as
well. Looking forward to next year.” – and so are the
Fischers and Wilseys.

Shadrow225

225 Pound Halibut

Sandy Shadrow stands beside his monster of a
catch.

He and his brother, Don, went out with Capt Crusty
aboard the “Shooter”, with no deck hand. They
caught 4 fish totalling 500 pounds.

They have been coming up each year and we look
forward to the next time. Fish on!

Wilmas

Silver Salmon

The Wilmas experienced Alaska in style on their 3rd
trip by chartering a Jet Ranger helicopter for the
entire week.

It whisked them off to unchartered fishing territories
and unique landscapes every day. Robin caught her
first fish on a flyrod on one of the many pristine
creeks they visited. Way to go, Robin!

Emil Lacek caught this 212-pound halibut in June

212 Pound Halibut

Emil Lacek caught this trophy halibut while visiting
the lodge with his son, Mark.

They also experienced a wide open bite for silver
salmon on the salt, limiting in 20 minutes.

Todd poses with a Kenai River rainbow

Rainbow Trout

We caught and released many beautiful rainbow trout
in August. Many were in the 10 pound range like the
one Capt Todd is holding.

Appetizers are served

After a long day of fishing, it is always nice to come
home to smiling staff.

    What a catch: ling cod and red snapper.

    Returning guests Matt Moore and Jon Mayer added
    ling cod to their fishing repertoire this year.They
    landed these assisted by deck hand, Brittney
    Gaethle and Steve Moe, aka Captain Crusty.

    Matt caught the largest one. It weighed 67 pounds,
    which made it a trophy catch. A 55-pounder is the
    qualifying weight for the trophy class distinction.

    This year the lodge expanded its fishing portfolio to
    include ling cod. The season for ling cod opens on
    July first and continues through August.

    Largest Kenai King

    King salmon

    Ryan Squires and Doc Stuart Finkelstein celebrate
    their catch.

    Caught on the Kenai River these kings weighed in at
    70 pounds and 55 pounds.

    Bob Black hosted this party, booking the entire lodge
    for the week. It was Bob’s 3rd trip to the Lodge.

    They fished the salt, the local rivers and went on a
    few fly-outs for an all-round Alaskan experience.

    Helicopter Fishing

    Heli fishing in the pristine wildernes

    We made good use of the Robinson R44 Clipper II
    helicopter this season for fishing, flight seeing, glacier
    viewing and nature watching. Many guests upgraded
    to this deluxe experience.

    Rockfish

    Jon Mayer caught his first yellow-eyed rockfish while

    season.

    Pirate Night

    The best dressed pirates of the season

    Arrrrrgh, maties …

    What great costumes! This was Jerry’s 10th year at
    the lodge.

    Ultimate Father-Daughter Trip

    Heli on Glacier

    She booked the exclusive use of the Robinson
    Clipper R44 helicopter and had a dedicated guide for
    the entire week.

    Fresh water fishing for kings and rainbows on the
    Talachuitna was one of the highlights of the trip.

    June 2005 Newsletter

    Monday, March 18th, 2013


    Deep Creek Fishing Club June 2005 Newsletter

    Greetings to you from the last Frontier.

    This Newsletter features only the June Highlights of
    2005. You’ll be receiving the months of July, August
    and September as well. From now on you can look
    forward to e-mails from us to keep you up to date on
    what’s happening at the lodge, provide you with
    fishing updates and show you the daily catches.

    .

    “Wow! What a year!” Our 2005 season provided some
    of our best catches to date.

    Larry Csonka & Audrey Bradshaw visited the lodge in June

    Deep Creek Fishing Club had the honor of hosting
    Larry Csonka’s, “North to Alaska”, tv show this June.
    True to the flavor of the lodge, the crew was able to
    enjoy excellent fresh and salt water fishing. As well
    as angling locally, Larry flew out to the Karluk River
    on Kodiak Island where they caught their limit of king
    salmon. Their adventures also took them lake trout
    fishing at Chenik Lake, and halibut fishing aboard one
    of our 28 ft Koffler boats. The shows are scheduled
    to air in 2006.

    ‘ “Xcellent”. From “A” to “B” to “Z”, everything was
    great.We’ll be back” ‘ Larry Csonka

    The Lewis party with their catch of king salmon on the Chuitna River

    Steve Lewis and crew at the Chuitna River. The
    group arrived at the lodge in style aboard their Gulf
    Stream 4 jet. They did it all, rotating between fishing
    the salt, the local rivers and flying out to fresh water
    streams by plane and helicopter every day. Each
    morning brought the promise of another adventure.

    “The most complete fishing experience possible. The
    fishing was only outclassed by the service and food”.
    Steven Lewis

    Charlier Ricker Fly Fishing for Kings

    The Theodore and Chuitna Rivers counted amongst
    those that the Lewis party fished, arriving on location
    by helicopter. These rivers provided great fishing
    conditions, allowing the group to catch and release
    over 200 king salmon over the week. They have
    booked again for the 2006 season.

    “Our experience exceeded our expectations. Greatest
    fishing experience of my life in surroundings beyond
    description”. B. Kaiman – Lewis Party

    Long Family

    The Long family proudly boast of the fun they had
    while catching their daily limit of king salmon while
    fishing in the picturesque salt water bay of Halibut
    Cove.

    “All of us had a great time. It couldn’t have been
    better.” Paul Long

    Jeff Seibert - 200 Pound class

    Ricky Moore and his family, from Atlanta, GA have
    been coming to the lodge since 1995. This year he
    invited the Seiberts to join them on their 4th
    trip to the lodge. Jeff hauled in this monster halibut
    out of Cook Inlet. What a feat for a first-timer!

    “Experience of a lifetime. Excellent fishing and food,
    1st class accommodations”. Jeff Seibert

    We would like to say thank you to each of
    the 48 guests who visited us this June. You created
    lasting memories while you were here, and we are
    happy to have been a part of them. If you have any
    suggestions, a fishing story or a picture you’d like to
    share, do tell us. We’d love to hear from you.

    John Bierman of Orange, Ca won the Ninilchik Halibut
    Derby this year with this enormous 365 pound, 94-

    What a great way to spend fathers’ day!

    This halibut is the largest one caught in 20 years in
    Cook Inlet by a derby contestant. It went on to gain
    headlines in all the local papers, the LA Times, the
    Alaska magazine and the Anchorage Daily News.
