[OT] A Big Fish Story(a.k.a. gloat)
 

took a little time off my usual to deplete the state of Alaska of its excess
fish population . Our group of 3 sent back 95 lbs of fillets. However,
following are the requisite woodworking related pictures.

Since I spent 14 of the happiest years of my life in Alaska, I am one
of the few who knows just how much you such.

Great pics, great woodworking and Great State.

....My son, his father-in-law(a good personal friend) and myself took the
trip as a birthday present for my son. My sons wife hates fish and I didn't
want to fool with them so his FIL got a freezer full of fish. He plans on
giving most of it away. However, I do have over 300 good picture I could
share...bears, moose, eagles, mountains, glaciers, water etc and
on-and-on....fish too....

I completely agree with Swingman...you suck!

Great pics, thanks for sharing.

I'm off to the Maritimes for a couple of weeks at the end of July.
Cottage on the Bay of Fundy, my wife's three brothers are fisherman
nearby (Professional/commercial fishermen). Maybe I can go out with them
for a cpl of days and handle the bait (semi-decomposed herring..with a
little luck it will be choppy too, oh yay, turning green..LOL)

I'll be posting a few pics when I get back..*G*

Good one Lawrence. Its winter here - makes me yearn for summer.

Welcome to the Maritmes Robatoy. The weather has really sucked this
year, but it should be nice by end of July.

Lawrence...you really suck. I'd love to get to Alaska to fish.

I have had tremendous luck with the weather in Nova Scotia over the last
6 summers. (Except one day last year when a buddy of mine got married in
his backyard.. it rained. Being a HOG wedding, we made do with a few
kegs.
If it rains this trip, no biggie. It's a short hop to The Lower
Deck...*G*

Hm. Suppose he'd mail some, say in a styrofoam cooler w/ ice packs...?
