Welcome to Frontier Family Alaska! In this episode, we invite you to come along for one of the most anticipated traditions of the Alaskan summer: sockeye salmon fishing on the legendary Kenai River. This isn’t just a relaxing day by the water — it’s a full-on subsistence mission, where we gear up, head out early, and haul in some of the healthiest, most protein-rich wild fish nature has to offer. This video is a real-time journey through a family day of fishing, set against the stunning, fast-moving waters of the Kenai. Whether you’re new to Alaska, thinking about visiting, or dreaming of a more self-sufficient life, this video gives you a true, unfiltered look at what it takes to catch wild sockeye salmon — and what makes it so meaningful to families like ours. 🗺️ Where We Are: The Kenai River The Kenai River, winding its way through the Kenai Peninsula, is Alaska’s crown jewel of salmon fishing. Each year, it sees two major runs of sockeye salmon (also known as red salmon) — one in late June and a second, larger one in mid-to-late July. These runs draw thousands of locals and visitors alike, all eager to harvest wild, sustainably managed fish. We’re out here with our family at a favorite local spot, surrounded by other Alaskans taking part in the same tradition — some fishing for fun, others filling freezers just like us. With glacial-blue water, bald eagles overhead, and snow-capped mountains in the background, it’s a place that doesn’t just feed your body — it feeds your soul. 🐟 The Sockeye Salmon: Alaska’s Wild Powerhouse Sockeye salmon are known for their incredible strength, vibrant color, and high fat content. Packed with omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin D, and lean protein, they are one of the healthiest wild foods available. And here in Alaska, we’re fortunate enough to catch them right from the source — no middlemen, no chemicals, no processing plants. In this episode, we’ll show you everything from: • Spotting the sockeye in the water • Casting with proper technique • Timing the set and managing slack • Fighting the fish safely and effectively • Landing and securing your catch • Legal and respectful fish handling • Bleeding and icing the fish for maximum freshness 🧊 The Fishing Process: What It Really Looks Like Fishing for sockeye isn’t easy — especially with kids, gear, and a limited window. In this video, we get up early, pack the vehicle, double-check our tackle, and head to the riverbank to claim a spot. It’s cold, it’s wet, and it takes patience and persistence. There’s nothing like the pull of a strong salmon on your line — the way it darts side to side, dives deep, and thrashes in the current. We share the whole experience with you: the excitement, the tangles, the near misses, and the ultimate satisfaction of landing a fish you’ll be eating months from now. You'll also hear us talk through: • Gear we use (rods, reels, line strength, weights) • Best bait and techniques for sockeye • Fishing regulations and permits • How we teach our kids safety and respect for the river • The emotional satisfaction of harvesting your own food 👨👩👧👦 Fishing As a Family: Lessons and Laughter One of the best things about fishing the Kenai is that it’s a multi-generational tradition. We’ve got the whole crew out — parents, kids, and sometimes friends — all working together. This is about more than just catching fish. It’s about: • Teaching our children where food comes from • Building resilience and teamwork • Connecting with nature • Making memories that last a lifetime We also show the lighter moments — snacks on the riverbank, kids learning to net fish, goofy mistakes, and the look of pure pride when a little one brings in a sockeye for the first time. 📦 After the Catch: Homestead Food Prep Catching salmon is only half the work. Once we’re home, the real job begins: processing, vacuum sealing, freezing, smoking, or canning the fish so it lasts all year. In the video, we’ll walk you through our process: • How we clean and fillet each fish • How we freeze and store to avoid freezer burn • Why we smoke some fish and jar others • Tips for long-term food storage on the homestead This is about feeding our family for months — without needing a grocery store, without wondering about additives, and without spending a fortune.
