This collection of tales is Kim Francisco's memories of his first summer working for the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, Commercial Fisheries Division in the Arctic-Yukon-Kuskokwim Region. His experiences ranged from the mundane to life-threatening, comical to tragic. He found it so satisfying it led to a lifelong career in natural resource management. These events primarily occurred in 1973; however, the timeline occasionally jumps to tell the whole story. Fish are notoriously challenging to persuade; fisheries management mainly deals with people. In Alaska's diverse cultural environment, interacting with people was always interesting. Life-long friendships are formed, and every twenty-one-year-old has romance in their life.
