Heading out to Fish Creek to try a bit of Dip netting Tuesday at 7am. High tide is at 840am. Its close so might as well give it a shot. Truck is loaded let me know if you want to join in the fun:party:

Rode up there saturday was an absolute madhouse, never seen so many people together in one place in alaska. From the looks and sounds of people fishing the morning tides have been been more plentiful then the afternoon.
Just a little insight oh yeah and be prepared for a silt fest, also the ATV trail on the south side of the bridge has been marked no ATV's due to the owner of the land on southside or creek. Depending on what trooper you ask, will depend the legity of property owners right to post signs. If your riding your wheelere up let me know I may tag along, south side is still open to wheelers, but is beyond muddy/silty.

I looked up there @4pm today and it wasn't bad. I have yet to hike up to the area to dip net. I wont bring the wheelers its only about 1/4 mile hike on the path but who knows. Will try it out and if it seems good I might go back in the evening. I am hoping there wont be a ton of people there at 7am lol
