VacMaster 150 Vacuum Sealer Review

Anyone that fishes or hunts a lot, and harvests game, invariably has meat to process at the end of a trip. In my case I fish for Salmon, and every summer and fall I end up filleting and vacuum sealing numerous pounds of fish.

In the past five years I’ve gone through 3 vacuum sealers. In those 5 years I’ve lost a fair amount of fish to broken seals and the freezer burned fish that results. It a pain in the butt to go to pull out a piece of Chinook for dinner only to find out that that piece of fish hasn’t been good for weeks!

Bamfield Fishing

Bamfield fishing. One trip and I'm hooked...Bamfield is located inside Barclay Sound, on the South West Coast of Vancouver Island. It has long been popular with hikers, kayakers, and outdoor types. My interest in Bamfield, though, is in the fishing. Bamfield offers some of the best salmon fishing opportunities in the Pacific Northwest.

Port Alberni Sockeye Fishing
Once only thought of as a prime commercial salmon, sockeye have become a very popular sport fish. Each year large runs of sockeye swim into the waters of Barkley Sound and make their way into the Port Alberni Inlet, and then into the Somass- Stamp River system. From the river, the Sockeye enter either Sproat Lake or Great Central Lake. The sockeye, also known as "Reds", then enter various small rivers, streams and creek tributaries where they turn a marvelous red color with their life ending after their spawn. The Port Alberni area has years when sockeye returns are over one million, making the sockeye fishery beneficial for sport and commercial fishermen.

Tidewater Chinook Fishing
“You don’t have to stare at your rod tip Landry – they’ll hammer it!” That was the voice of my guide, friend, and mountain of a man Dustin Kovacvich. We were sitting on anchor in tidewater in the Terrace area, 15 minutes into the first day of my trip. Two rods hung out the sides of the boat. On the business end of the lines were two sardine wrapped K16 Kwikfish.
