Yep, that's right, up and fishing again by 5:15. Cold and rainy, but we trooped down there and snagged 3 fish. I got one and Charlie two. We were both tired by then, there were a lot of people down there fishing and not that many fish - so we decided to call it a day. Charlie has a bit of my cold - which I am totally done with, so I think it added to his decision to go ahead and head back.
I took all the fish from the last three days to the processor - we had another 34 pounds, giving us a total of 77.68 pounds of salmon filets! We have decided to stop adding to it and just go ahead and ship it. If we catch any more, we will freeze and take with us to eat on the road or eat it when we catch it. In fact, I am hoping Charlie catches one this afternoon - if he does we will be grilling it for dinner!
He is feeling better - but stayed at camp while I took the fish to Soldotna. I tried to upload some pictures today, but by the time i did laundry, took the fish in and had some knives sharpened, I really didn't have time to sit and wait 2 more hours - so once again, that will have to wait. I am going to upload them as soon as I can and will post the link on here, whenever I manage to accomplish this. : )
We are still thinking we will be leaving the Russian on Wednesday or Thursday.
Hope all is well with everyone, we love and miss you all.
Miss you, too! So bummed that we missed your phone call. I was working at school--yes, it's that time again! My room is set up now and teachers officially start back Mon. the 13th.
