    Seems worthless to most.

    One of my great laments. Had two good spots as a kid, one south of Alsea, another near Tidewater. 10 bird limit and a month long season. Glad you’re able to get out and hunt them.

    I’ve never seen the White River but the boys I have in camp here in Alaska fish it frequently they say. For 3 of the 4 it’s their first trip to Ak. Those boys can sure fish!
