Alaska Salmon Fisherman Profile-Victor Popa, Egegik, Part 1

As part of our efforts to bring a piece of our world to you, we have created a series of interviews with local fishermen who can help give some insight into life as a commercial fisherman in Bristol Bay. Victor Popa is originally from Romania and moved to the United States in the early 70s. It was at that time that he had the opportunity to come to Alaska one summer to fish.

Since then, he has come back to the same place every summer for nearly 35 years. Victor is one of the fishermen that we purchase fish from. In these two videos, he is explaining about his life while unloading fish for us. Enjoy!
