Day 8....

When 2/3 of a record run shows up at the doorstep in the eight days we fished, no dental degree required.... a proctologist could have done as well. Like I said in another post the total passage of sockeye during my stay was 0.95 million.... that's 119K per day. The river was ALIVE with sockeye. With that many fish swimmin' by, good things are bound to happen.

The only bad part about keepin' so many fish is that "someone" has to clean all the damned things! Takin' the punishment for the Home Team ala fNp.

My hands are frickin' fried. Been sloughin' layers for the past three days. Hope those succulent fillets were worth it for the lucky few who got to partake of truly fresh-caught Alaskan sockeye!
