Anyone who's fished Southeast Alaska knows that the number of fish caught sometimes feels almost unfair. Southeast Alaska's waters are some of the most productive on Earth because of a rare convergence of geology, forest ecology, and ocean physics, all working together to build a food web from the bottom up.

Southeast Alaska is home to all five species of Pacific salmon, King, Silver, Sockeye, Pink, and Chum. While they're all cousins, they don't look alike, fight alike, or taste the same. Knowing the difference is the kind of thing that turns a good fishing story into a great one. Here's a field guide to Southeast Alaska's Salmon to tell them apart, whether they're fresh and chrome-bright off the troll or starting to color up for their spawning run.

This Species Bucket List covers anything and everything you can catch in Southeast Alaskan Waters. We'll explore the trophy catches, the best table fare, the oddballs, and the ones we ask you to say a quick "see you later" to.
