Escape to Port Protection, Alaska | Salmon Summer Solstice PT 1
Chef Ellard met Mike "Jiggy" Nichols and his partner Gail in Hawai'i. They invited Ellard to come to Port Protection, a remote Alaskan fishing village to film the annual Summer Solstice Festival. Ellard stayed for 2 weeks and filmed the Solstice Festival capturing the amazing seafood available on the island. On this first episode, Ellard drops into Petersburg where Mike and Gail pick him up in the Longshot. First they stop to explore an iceberg and get ice for their drinks. Next they launch on an 8 hour boat ride to their destination on Prince of Wales Island - Port Protection. On the way they pull up a crab pot full of Dungeness Crabs. Once in Port Protection, Mike and Gail take Ellard clamming and they eventually have a crab boil on the beach where Ellard meets several Port Protection residents.
