Nice Job Randy, definitely the way to spend your lunchbreak. Thanks for the pictures. 
Thanks Fred and you’re welcome. I’m trying not to make Steve look to bad down there in California but I love it when I can squeeze a fish or two in sideways once in a while. 😂

You’re killing me Cat. My lunch break consists of rehydration. Nice going. 👍
I know right but I’ll tell ya it’s pretty hard when we have “caution, watch for fishermen on the road” signs on my way to work every morning and I can smell king salmon in the river when I get out of my rig at work. Hard to focus when there’s a killer, record,salmon run going on right across the street and the boss lady comes over to the shop all the time and says “ya know there’s 15 fish hanging it the cooler. You might wanna wash your hands and knock out a few before the cooler gets too full over there. 🙄😂

Thanks Cat. You've a neat operation. Our's was farmer casual, no money. Smoker man kept his, we got plenty. All local. We're not a destination fishery, anything else. Folks travel from here to everywhere, dismiss our resources. Recon if your planning travel , you're already gone. We do it also. Running our coast up and down, though we have rivers and lakes close by. Heck man, I love this place.

The season is about over sounds like so I took another lunch break. 11 pounder👍. Kinda nice working right across the street from the fishin hole. Little Salmon River in Riggins Idaho. People are catching them like crazy right now. I filleted 14 yesterday not counting mine and 21 two days ago. Good looking fish for traveling 700 miles to get here.
Wow CH, you definitely live in paradise.

Just fish for other stuff till hunting season starts. We have a fall season too and there’s steelhead here year round. I’m not big on salmon and steelhead so I don’t fish much for them. Probably 4 or 5 salmon a year and about that many steelhead. My Mom likes em so I catch a few for her.

Not many people have the opportunity I have here. I feel very fortunate to live where I live.

Probably 10 years ago we stopped for dinner in Riggins at a local restaurant and I ordered the salmon from the menu. It was absolutely beyond belief the toughest salmon I ever ate my life! All I could think of was all those miles that fish had to travel and the muscle it built up! 🐟On!
