,"This is the best salmon I have ever tasted."

I brought some 1 year old salmon to work from my freezer that I didn't know was even in there. The vacuum seal had broken too..I barbecued it after marinating it in Yoshida's Gourmet Sauce.... I took a bite and felt like running and hiding but the gang at work said:

"This is the best salmon I have ever eaten!!!"

Too bad they never came over to my house to try some fresh from the salt barbecued the same day it was caught. mmmmmmm

Chums , on the other hand, are called DOG salmon for a reason..the mushers in Alaska fed them to their sled dogs. Most of the Chums that the indians are out gill netting today will end up gutted and discarded..eggs taken from the females and the bucks will not even be cleaned. Carcasses tossed back in the drink. I smoked one I caught in the Sky last weekend and it wasn't bad but I certainly wouldn't target them for the table given the quality fish I have to eat.
