Mike's King


Mike's King, originally uploaded by kidsideup.

So, here's Mike with his King Salmon he caught the other night. I never see them this way, he filets them before he leaves the river.
Every year the people from Mike's office go to the King Salmon opener (at midnight) on Sheep Creek. It's combat fishing (this means lots of people) but it's tradition.
He works in an office with a lot of good people which just adds to the fact that he loves his job.
I love that we live in a place where he can drive a short ways up the highway and come back with something as tasty as this.

Before you comment on how much cheaper it is to catch your own rather than buy one for 20 something a pound at the store, remember the price of gas...
