Photos and videos that were taken the same day we visited Seward, as read about in the July 2025 Adventures and Beyond Magazine.

Videos from Brad and Judah Sturms Bear Hunt.

The Snader’s are expecting a new baby in 2025!

At 8 PM Eastern Standard Time, our gun give away live stream starts! (4 PM Alaska Time) Tom Burkholder will join us, along with Chad Zimmerman.

We hit a snag in our gun giveaway-the engraver just finished up with it, a few hours ago. But-we are still going to give it away! (of course)

Our fourth full day of hunting was moderately successful, with Paul and myself (Matt) each getting a doe. Paul’s was actually a button buck. This may be our last day of hunting, depending on the weather and the float plane schedule. Stay posted!

Day three of Afognak Island turned out some positive results, with several deer down! Paul still hasn’t gotten a Kodiak bear, nor have we seen anyway. Tom tagged out, with three doe, Kit celebrated turning 18 by bagging his first blacktail deer, and Markel managed to take down a buck. I managed to take down […]

Day Two was a bust, no deer, no bears, but Paul did bag three ducks. I managed to scare a fox off by shooting at it nine times with a Glock (not on video, sorry). It was terrible windy today, but at least there was no rain.

Currently we are deer and bear hunting (Paul has a Kodiak bear tag) on Afognak Island, I am updating with my Starlink system. This is Day 1, and also the day before when we traveled to Kodiak and then to Afognak. I am using the 45-70 rifle that we are giving away at the end […]

The elevator ride up was actually a hair frightening, as you can tell by the language that I have removed from the video. This was the result of other people in the elevator, not our group. See all the videos and slides of Paris here.

A video about the Green Island public use cabin, in Prince William Sound. This cabin is a great place to hunt deer and just enjoy the scenery. If you want to hunt private land, make sure to check out Ihunt.com.

Our trip to Tutka Bay snagging salmon, which is about a 15 mile run from Homer.

Video of under Prince William Sound! Halibut, rock fish, yellow eye, all kinds of neat fish.

We took the ugly AI jig to Prince William Sound to give it a test, and it actually caught some fish! A special thanks to I-Hunt for sponsoring this video. Through them, you can rent private land to hunt on, in many states across the US. For more information visit www.IHunt.com.

My brother came to visit, he is a computer science major. He has taken some classes in artificial intelligence, so I asked him to use those tools to design a fishing lure. The result was a bit interesting, and made me think we are safe from robots, at least for a little while.

An ROV is an underwater drone. We try this out in Cook Inlet and see what is below us…

Some interesting underwater footage, taken in Halibut Cove, Alaska. This footage was taken on June 3, 2023.

Our youth group went hiking in Halibut Cove, and I was enlisted to haul everyone over. The last group made the wise choice to go fishing instead of hiking, and it just so happened I had fishing equipment on the boat! Click here for extra footage not included in this video.

We found Salty Lures to perform well, and we paid their headquarters a visit. These lures are sold in Bass Pro, Cabelas, Sportman’s Warehouse, Trustworthy Hardware, and other places up here in Alaska. A special thanks to PlainDirect.com, which offers classified advertising to Homesteaders and outdoor enthusiasts. Also thank you to Millertech, who makes batteries […]

On June 1, 2023, we tried out some Salty Lures and set our sights south to East Chugach Island, which is a two hour trip from Homer. Passing by the Port Chatham, we failed to see any Sasquatches, and then continued on into the Gulf of Alaska. We did catch quite a few sea bass, […]
