Alaska: Summer Fishing Job? I currently live in South Dakota and attend South Dakota State University. I work on a farm when not in school. I was wondering if any novice fisherman or anyone who knows the ins and outs of the fishing world in Alaska could tell me about this job and where I can look for hiring? I do not need to hear the hard work aspect of it, I know it is demanding but I am not shy of hard work due to growing up on a farm. So if anyone can give me any help at all, I need an adventure and something new. I am tired of the stale routine of every summer working on the farm and then going back to school. I understand the money aspect can vary but this will be an experience that I could always remember. Any help, I would be most thankful. Thanks all.
