Chilkat Valley News - Serving Haines and Klukwan, Alaska since 1966

The Haines Sportsman’s Association expresses its appreciation to all who entered 2019 Silver Salmon Derby. Fisher-folk from Haines, Juneau, Canada, and places as far away as Arizona and Washington, D.C. were casting lines for coho. Local area businesses contribute to our derby’s success. We thank the following for their generous contributions: Outfitter Sporting Goods, Alaska Sport Shop, Captain’s Choice Motel, Constantine/Palmer Project, Alaska Seaplanes, Howser’s IGA, Storage and Warehouse, and Delta Western. The Lutak FIVE contributed the cash prizes for this year’s first Kids Silver Derby. The derby is a superb opportunity to get out with family and friends to enjoy sport fishing on our rivers and inlets. Proceeds generated from the Haines Sportsman’s Association Silver Salmon Derby are awarded as annual scholarships. We appreciate your continuing support, input, and generosity. Fish On!
