Fish On!
Fish On!
This is the yell you can hear this time of year. The Smith River is jumping, literally, with Salmon. The son has always enjoyed fishing and he seems to have fallen (no pun intended) into a relationship with a young woman who’s dad is a retired fisherman. I’m not sure weather he likes the girl better or her dad!
They go out every day and it has gotten to the point where they catch and release because everyone’s freezer is full of salmon.
Here is the Eye Candy picture for today, the biggest one yet. We’re smoking it next weekend. Won’t the neighbors love smelling that?
The white dots are rain. One benefit of living through 5 inches of rain in 3 days is the Salmon are running up river to spawn.
For those of you who know my family personally, yes, this is the oldest boy…6′1″ and all growed up!

Now THAT is a salmon!! Dang, definitely one of the things I miss about the North Coast - fresh seafood. There is absolutely no such thing here - unless you count catfish from the Chattahoochie River. And I don’t. They don’t even really have decent frozen fish here.
And Jeff….(I didn’t say Jeffrey, can’t really call a 6′1″ hunk of a young man ‘Jeffrey’ anymore). He is definitely all growed up.
My grandson actually talked to me on the phone last night.
That may have seemed like a non sequitur. It’s not, both make me feel old.
