Fish!

The Fraser River has been closed to fishing for the last 3 years because of low salmon stocks. But, this year, there seems to be an abundance of salmon. So they've opened the river to commercial fisherman a few times this week. So, I asked my Dad to go visit a friend of his, who just happens to be a commercial fisherman, and he was able to get me this...

Fresh Fraser River Sockeye Salmon!!
Of course, Mom helped me cut it up and vacuum pack it so I could freeze it. Well, she did most of the work. I tried to help, but it really was a one person operation. But, it was fun!


We are freezing most of it, but we did set aside a couple of steaks and one fillet to eat this weekend. Fresh salmon for dinner! mmmmmmmm! I simply can't wait! I kind of wish now that I had ordered a few more!

Maybe there will be another opening. Maybe we should get some more bags just in case????
