Returning fishing boat
Commercial fishing is king here (and queen and prince). The visitors that venture this far off the beaten path are treated with a bemused benevelance not seen at Alaska's tourist destinations. Last estimate on tourists that I've heard is about 1000 a year, mostly birding, fishing, and just wanting bragging rights of having gone this far west. Compare that with 30,000 fishing industry travellers per year coming to the plants and commerical fishing boats.
Unique Suggestions: You could buy a Carhart Jacket and Xtra tough boots and try and blend in with the local fishermen...
