According to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, in their annual report for the Sitka Fishing area: Fishing improves greatly with the spring weather in late April, but prime time is from late May through the month of June. Anglers targeting King Salmon may have catch rates of just under 5-hours per fish harvested (0.2 fish per hour) in June. Catch rates fall with the beginning of the commercial troll fishery in July, although good king salmon fishing continues throughout the summer. Alaska fishing in Sitka provides for King Salmon bound for spawning grounds and weighing up to 70 lbs from April through June. The average catch is 25 to 30 lbs. From July through September, Silver Salmon (Coho) are the most plentiful sport fish caught in the Sitka Sound area. Coho Salmon start showing up in June, but really start to group in July.

Southwest Greens will only quote face weights without the backing! Face weight is the weight of the turf in ounces, and more weight can mean a thicker and fuller lawn, BUT it doesn't necessarily mean the turf will have increased longevity. When asking for face weight comparisons, make sure it does not include the backing. A higher face weight will mean a higher quality, longer lasting turf. Our Arizona Putting Greens
