Alaska 2021 – June 8-10
We woke up to a beautiful day for cruising over to Craig.
The sun is out and the water is calm.
We went to the fuel dock first and added fuel to both the
Nelsea and the Grady. We have used about
300 gallons of diesel and 50 gallons of unleaded since we last fueled in
Ketchikan so we are full and ready to continue the adventures! We went grocery
shopping which we have not done since May 19 when we were in Ketchikan. We all
had to catch up on Emails, phone calls and other business while we had internet
and cell service available so it was a busy two days by town.
The fishing boats
are still in Craig so even if we wanted to stay in town there is no space at
the docks right now for the 3 boats. We
usually stay at Fish Egg Island and just take the small boats to town. We had
dinner last night at Dockside Café as the Fireweed Lodge in Klawock was full!
The owners of the Fireweed were at the Dockside and we told them we are coming
back next week and hope to eat at their place on our next trip to town!
We will head to Port Real Marina which is West of Craig between Lulu and Baker Island. We have stayed here before and fished the area and Noyes Island. The fisherman in Craig were saying that its about a week early but the fish are starting to arrive. They opened the area South of Craig to the commercial fishermen on Tuesday the 8th and we saw about 8 boats on the way over to Craig long line fishing the area off of Prince of Wales Island.
