Fishing and doing well

August 1, 2012

For the few days we have caught our limit and we caught 5 today.  Charlie has gone back down to fish a bit more, and I am updating the blog in Soldotna.   I took 29 pounds of filets to be processed today.  That is all the fish we have caught in the last few days -  that is amazing!

 Today I caught a very red, Red Salmon, it is the quintessential salmon -
I think it is what most people think of when they think of Alaskan salmon, but they are not really that desirable - people think them too old and too close to spawning,  but I kept it  since I worked hard to catch it! and the meat was fine -  and I thought it quite
pretty. Charlie said it was from 13 - 14 pounds!  

As you can see from the picture, Charlie did his usual job of keeping our numbers up 
( a few of them are mine...)
