Mine:

The above Silver from last weekend. Yesterday was for Reds (Pictured below is the largest of the five Reds (Sockeye Salmon) I pulled from the water.)

Hopefully cleaning these Reds won't turn them RB or Blue-Toned. :smile:

    Do you ship express, and will it still be hot when it arrives?
    P.S. I will need two servings, plus a few bites for our dog.
    Needs to be silver, not keta, or else a SNAD.... :p

    Enjoy your meal!

    Fish never tastes better than a good shore lunch over a campfire in the wilderness.
    Walleyes, whitefish - the best.

    Sockeye is the very best salmon.... Used to fish for salmon out of San Francisco and also Seattle....Silver salmon are ok.. but for flavor, Sockeye is the King...Cheers, RickO

    The Reds are Kenai River Reds I caught. The Silver was ocean sourced from Prince William Sound.

    The Sockeye "Red" Salmon bounty proves to be the gift that keeps on giving. Locally grown lettuce for the salad, as well as broccoli and cauliflower from a nearby garden and then fresh cut rhubarb for the pie.

    It is refreshing to see that some in the hobby eat more than hot dogs with mustard.

    First it was Silver. Then toned Red. Now for the "Blast White" group with the trifecta complete with this week's Halibut bounty from the waters:

    I guess for equal time the Halibut also deserves depiction meal ready. Nothing tops fresh caught broiled Halibut.

    Just returned from a hike up the backside of a mountain. Added bounty of blueberries, though had to share the picking with this fellow:

    If one looks closely, there appear to be at least two other bears "hiding" in the brush.

    Here is another view that may be more helpful. Using the bear in the foreground as the center of the clock, look up to 10 o clock and to 12 o clock.

    What a "fishy" thread.

    The last silver I got was from a Coinstar, a 1964-D Dime.

    I have fond memories of fishing for salmon, trout and steelhead in northern California in the 70's. Great eating! Terrible about Yosemite and all the other fires. Peace Roy

    Also born in Wisconsin, retired to NC. Miss perch fishing and especially the local fish fry on Fridays. Walleye is tasty too.

    But NC is no slouch when it comes to seafood, lots to choose from.

    Just got back from 10 days in Alaska, including 5 around Kenai.

    You are blessed to live there....in summer at least. :)

    We took home lots of reds and a few pinks -- but no sliver.
