S2 Episode 7: Captain Natalie Anderson | 19-Year-Old Alaska Fishing Captain: Breaking Barriers in Charter Fishing & Conservation

In this episode, we sit down with Natalie Anderson, a 19-year-old charter boat captain from Prince of Wales Island, Alaska, who is quickly making a name for herself in a male-dominated commercial fishing industry. From starting as a deckhand at 16 to becoming one of the youngest captains in her fleet, Natalie shares what it takes to lead on the water, earn respect, and deliver unforgettable fishing experiences. We dive into the realities of Alaska fishing, charter boat life, sustainable fishing practices, and navigating strict fishing regulations—including king salmon limits, halibut restrictions, and the impact of industry policy on the next generation of outdoorsmen and women. Natalie also opens up about overcoming skepticism due to her age and gender, building confidence with clients, and the importance of community support and mentorship in the outdoor industry. This episode is packed with insight for anyone interested in fishing, conservation, entrepreneurship, and breaking barriers in the outdoors—plus some incredible stories from life on the water, including landing a 200+ pound halibut. If you’re passionate about wild-caught food, sustainable fishing, Alaska adventures, and the future of outdoor industries, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
