After some rough weather, Ben finally lands in Sitka, Alaska where he fishes for halibut and takes part in some offbeat local traditions. After going out with Linda Behnken and her family to fish for halibut, Ben is off to Ludvig's Bistro, run by Chef Colette Nelson, to help prepare the fish featuring locally picked huckleberries. Later, Ben visits the Alaska Raptor Center and also takes part in a Sitka tradition, the "Running of the Boots," before sampling a local delicacy, black cod tips, made by President of the Sitka Local Foods Network, Kerry Maclane.
