About this image:
I think I've got a bite...
Now this is what fishing is all about! This is fisherman
Dean showing off his catch of the day. This Chinook Salmon
was caught near Kumealon Inlet. It measured 40" long and
once the steaks and filets were cleaned we had over 15 lbs /
7 kgs of delicious salmon.
Salmon we caught / Size: 40 inch or 122cm

About this image:
What's for lunch?
No more canned salmon for this crew. Within a couple of
hours of landing the Chinook Salmon, most had gone into the
freezer but a good portion went straight onto the menu. The
afternoon of June 1, was welcomed with a fresh plate of
Salmon Sashimi complete with Tamari Soy Sauce and wasabi
(Japanese horseradish).

About this image:
You hooked it... you put it back!
It was a struggle and a fight but eventually we were able to
reel in a vicious Sea Cucumber. Apparently, while we were
trolling, we hit a shallow area and this fellow must have
been lounging about not paying attention. Cucumbers were
never high on our list of vegetables, but Sea Cucumbers....
Don't worry though - he never made it onto the menu - Yechhh! |

About this image:
BC Ferries, Northern Adventure
This (almost) brand new ferry, the BC Ferries Northern
Adventure, offered regular service between Port Hardy and
Prince Rupert. It was recently placed into service to
replace the BC Ferry vessel that was tragically lost
operating the same route (obviously this one is not taking
the EXACT same route, but you get the idea), It seems as
though it is a fast trip as we passed by each other several
times over the next few days. |

About this image:
Now this is how you catch Salmon
Nature has it's ways and never wants to be shown up by a
couple of sailing fisherman. We watched in awe as this Bald
Eagle swooped down and captured this Salmon in front of our
eyes. The fish was a little to big for the Eagle to fly away
with it so, as we watched in utter amazement, he basically
"swam" to shore with his prize. |

About this image:
Mmmmm, fresh Salmon Sushi!
The Bald Eagle took the concept of fresh sushi one step
further with his Salmon. While we had cleaned, and
filleted our Salmon, the Eagle dove in ("Up to his
eyeballs" as the expression goes) and enjoyed sushi his
way. How uncivilized, not even any Tamari Soy sauce and
Wasabi.....Anyhow, not much left when Mr. Eagle was
finished with his catch. The seagulls also had dinner
that day (leftovers) |
