Anyone getting out and giving it a try. Randy, you getting out? Don, I heard from Alan today that you are out fishing for salmon near the coast, how are you doing ?

Salmon fishing this year has been insanely good. Some weeks having a hundred thousand fish coming over the Bonneville Dam!

I'll be over there chasing Coho in a couple of weeks. Trip #6 this year for Salmon! It's addictive! LOL

Wow, that's impressive Don, what was your biggest one this year? You have had a great year on the salmon. You must eat salmon every day, what is your favorite way to prepare them to eat?

I love this drunken Chardonnay infused Chinook bathed in minced garlic,

fresh tomatoes, basil, mayo and low moisture Italian cheese!
Cover with foil and bake, uncover and brown cheese under broiler for a few minutes.
No monsters this year. My largest have been 30 lbs.

Wow, that sounds good, a 30 lber is a good one, what is the largest one you have caught?

Thank you! I've spent my life chasing a 50 / 50 which is 50+ lbs and 50+ inches. I caught a 48 up on the Kenai but never made the 50/50 club. LOL

48 lbs, that's impressive, if you keep at it I'm sure you will get your 50/50. Do they even get that big, unless you go to Alaska?

Three came out of the Chetco River this year and a few out of Alaska and the Island Chains of BC. Very rare these days but I still persist! LOL
