Facebook Photo Contest Winner

We’re happy to crown Jason Burgett the winner of our first-ever Facebook photo contest.  Jason visited us at Alaska West this past August to chase silvers and rainbows, and he submitted this gem of a picture on our Facebook page.

Yes, we did say that hero shots of big fish aren’t necessarily what we’re looking for, and no, this shot maybe isn’t destined for the cover of  a magazine due to the guy dancing a jig in the background…but the pairing of the very big rainbow with Blake’s very big smile was just too much for us to pass up.

Congratulations, Jason!  Thanks very much to everyone who participated.  This certainly won’t be the last time – we’ll keep you posted on future contests.

    Nice fish Blake. This fish was hunted for several hours. With time running out and neither of the “fisherman” able to make the cast required, Blake hooked and landed this monster. Thanks for a great day Blake and thanks for a great week AlaskaWest.
