fishboy.jpg Today we went fishing. What a day! It’s a glorious feeling, to be out on the ocean. There’s just something about it. Big water terrifies me, but it also soothes me. It’s one of those incongruous things. This was my first time fishing for king salmon. I fished for pinks or humpies (I don’t know what’s what), the last time (which was also my first time), and was quite successful. Apparently, there’s a completely different art to king fishing, and they weren’t interested in my allure.

cjking1a.jpgMr. Gadget did quite well, and landed an enormous fish that will likely grow larger yet, as the years go by and the tale is spun. Mr. Munchkin is a remarkably good sailor boy. He did so well. He wasn’t interested in the fish or the seaweed, but he loved pointing out the planes when they’d fly by.

jking.jpgThe biggest fish was bigger than my son! It was a wild one too. Not a hatchery fish. (One learns these things when one has fish friends like ours.)  We’ll be getting our omega 3s this week.
