I’ve perfected my smoked salmon over 30 years and the number one important thing to do it fan dry the salmon before smoking it.

Make sure you have fresh gas. Fuel sitting for long periods of time has a sour smell.

Fishing river mouths for coho gets interesting. Apparently rain trumps tides and they shoot upstream. (Next day no fish) Next incoming tide brings more fish into the river. Next rain brings these upstream etc etc.

Not a salmon because salmon die after going into fresh water to spawn
