I just caught a 22 pound Chinook salmon. I got bragging rights....

Re: fuck all of you.....
 

Bring it on over, I'll fillet it for you and get it in my smoker!

Smoked a bunch of Atlantic Salmon from New Brunswick just last week. Turned out great!

Re: fuck all of you.....
 

Nice! Few things beat the rush of hooking and landing a big Chinook.

Call me when you bag some Catfish

Here we only have sturgeon to fill the ugly damn big fish niche.

Go to south Florida and catch some DogFish!

Re: fuck all of you.....
 

we have dogfish here....mud sharks.

Florida is great for fishing. Loved going out to the flats to catch Bonefish on a fly. Man, you know when you get a strike with those things. I also enjoyed Tarpon fishing (had a great hole near our place) and Wahoo was a fun fish.

Salmon is great eating (one of my favourites) but it's a boring fish to catch. When I lived out West, I used to take my boat to the Fraser River, set the down-riggers, and easily catch many. Just no fight at all.

When I lived on the East Coast, we'd go out in a friend's lobster boat and go hand-lining for Cod. Another fish they just laid there like a lump when it was caught! We'd fillet them back on the way to port, and have fish & chips for lunch. Mmmmm!

Re: fuck all of you.....
 

Don't what salmon you were reeling in because they fight like stink.

Re: fuck all of you.....
 

I'm in on that one too!

Re: fuck all of you.....
 

No, they really aren't fighting fish. You're just pulling against their weight and movement, nothing special. They aren't considered sport fish at all, except by the people trying to make money from outfitting or guiding you. We used to fish for them just because we liked to eat them so much! ;)

Re: fuck all of you.....
 

Guide???? Outfitter????

Re: fuck all of you.....
 

Agreed, every salmon I've ever caught put up a pretty good fight.

Re: fuck all of you.....
 

I just alder smoked a nice Spring salmon fillet on the bbq. Its about 80 degrees and the rose wine is cold. The sailboats in the bay are heeled over nicely,the beach is packed with girls in bikinis, my old lady is in Paris and I just rolled a fat one. Life is good. Catfish might fight, but I'll take the salmon any day for dinner.

Re: fuck all of you.....
 

I just roasted a weenie over an open garbage can fire dangled from an old coat hanger.

It's fuckin hot and humid, the PBR is cold e-fuckin-nuff and the sound of an illegal drag race is in the air.

I won't eat anything that has a Crayola color named after it!

And if anyone comes into my yard uninvited! I'll blow their head clean off their shoulders.

Re: fuck all of you.....
 

I always kinda wondered about burnt sienna. WTF is PBR?

Re: fuck all of you.....
 

Pabst Blue Ribbon, aka cheap beer.

I enjoy a nice fire roasted weenie on occassion, and a deep fried catfish filet is pretty tasty. But a charcoal grilled salmon steak is damn fine eats. :okthumb:

Re: fuck all of you.....
 

Don't eat fish...never understood fishing.
Won a sunfish contest in Boyscouts......that was the height of my fishing career.
Never understood how "fishing" was a "sport."
Seems terribly one sided. Very boring...sitiing there waiting for a fish to be hungry enough to bite the hook.

I like things that go "Moo."
No pretense there....line 'em up, kill'em, and hang 'em
(Was a little to close to that process as a young man, and don't need to do that anymore. I'll buy it after it gets into the Butcher's case.)

Went to a fancy beer/steak place last night. 15 beers on a little mat to "sample." All tasted like beer, with different stuff mixed in. Came out, still not liking beer.
Brisket was good, though. Still like a nice piece of beef!
