Blain Anderson @capt-blain.bsky.social · 28/08/2026Sitkans lost a hero today. Burgess Bauder was so loved we had bumper-stickers that say "What would Burgess do?". He will be greatly missed. Here's a lovely piece done by Rob Woolsey a few months ago. www.kcaw.org/tag/burgess-...kcaw.org 131

Blain Anderson @capt-blain.bsky.social · 29/05/2026So happy to have our first chinook (king) salmon aboard. This 17lb male was reeled in expertly by Dave on his special lure. He was thrilled, and we were very well fed. Thank you Pacific Ocean. 120

Blain Anderson @capt-blain.bsky.social · 02/05/2026Southeast Alaska. A boat outboard on your flatbed sorta makes sense here. 020
Blain Anderson @capt-blain.bsky.social · 31/03/2026Kayaking in winter in Sitka is a thing. Some perfect days out with the whales. The herring are spawning and there are bubble-netting humpbacks, as well as grey whales in the Sound right now. 071
Blain Anderson @capt-blain.bsky.social · 21/03/2026Postcards from French Polynesia. Still a paradise. We were thrilled to find intact coral reefs, lots of fish, uncrowded beaches, and a proud thriving Native culture. 060
Blain Anderson @capt-blain.bsky.social · 08/03/2026So this is Tahiti; Huahine, actually. And yes. Pretty much paradise. 040

Blain Anderson @capt-blain.bsky.social · 16/11/2025Dear Roger Barton, I am writing to end my relationship and patronage of Outdoor Research. After seeing photos of ICE and/or CPB "agents" proudly wearing OR gear, I am no longer willing to support your company as it assists in the continued tyranny and dictatorial take-over of our cities and towns. 010
Blain Anderson @capt-blain.bsky.social · 08/11/2025Occasionally something really catches your attention. This graphic novel of a story on the bears of Japan is worthy of a read.

Aging hunters are on the front line.Japan is grappling with increasing conflict between humans and wild bears, prompting calls for officials to rethink how they manage the risks. 110
Blain Anderson @capt-blain.bsky.social · 06/11/2025Finally got my Subaru Solterra yesterday. It was shipped on the ferry to Sitka from Juneau. I hadn't actually driven it before and it was a thrill testing the EV acceleration. Saw a whale spout and everything. It must be a sign. Looking forward to reading the mountain of owner manuals. 280

Blain Anderson @capt-blain.bsky.social · 16/09/2025Crazy day in Juneau today. Flew in at 5am. Got to the car service place to get my car. Bike rack and expensive bike on top are missing. Scoured the lot and found some parts and the way they got in. 2 hours later spotted some people spray-painting my bike one block away. Grabbed it back. 🤢🤮New color. 220

Blain Anderson @capt-blain.bsky.social · 14/07/2025Me now doing a preemptive grunt before I stand up. Do people do this to hide the sound of tendons snapping and joints creaking? IDK. My first time getting old. 130
Blain Anderson @capt-blain.bsky.social · 02/07/2025Got studied by a bear yesterday. We did teach it how people rapidly mosey back to their skiff and retreat to a safe distance... 230
