A Week In Togiak Bay

 

"Many years ago (about 1981)1 went by boat from Clark's Point to Togiak Bay. With me were my father-in-law, James Peter Sr., his sons Richard, Norman, and Joseph (my husband), and my kids Porky and Tanya. We went to Tog iak Bay to fish for one week.

While traveling to Togiak Bay we were lucky because the weather was calm and we all saw seals and walruses. When we went way out into the open ocean we would see no land. It took us 12 hours to get to Togiak Bay.

sunWhen we got to Togiak Bay my father-in-law, brother-in-laws and my husband, Joseph, set the net out for awhile. But on the third day the net got tangled in the prop. Another boat had to tow us to shore and they had to wait 8 to 10 hours for low tide to untangle the net and another 8 to 10 hours for high tide to come in so we could go back to fishing.

On the seventh day when we left for Clark's Point to deliver our fish it took us much longer because of the 15 foot waves we were hitting. Everyone was worried about me because of my pregnancy, so we went real slow. It took us about 15 hours to get to Clark's Point but we all made it safely."
