Our first salmon

The weather is great and fingers crossed, it will stay this way for the next 6 weeks! Sun and 70 degrees F. We just spent a couple days relaxing tied up to a government dock, watching the seals having a very good time and the salmon jump. We figured if we just put the dinghy out in entrance to the lagoon we would soon have our salmon for dinner. However that wasn’t necessary. Some nice young folks came by and gave us one of the a good size Cohoes they had caught. John cleaned it, I baked it and we then shared it with a couple of French Canadians kayakers. Nothing better than fresh fish that were swimming in the ocean only an hour ago!
