The Summer of Twenty Twelve


Sunrise heading out of San Juan Island
My king salmon was nearly snatched away by a harbor seal. The fish was pretty beat up in the fight, but all that matters is that I won!

I did some fishing in Idaho in September and landed this Kokanee

It's hard to believe the summer of 2012 is over. My travels took me Oregon & California where I did some rock hounding with Jeff Guild. Later I headed to the San Juan Islands to do some crabbing & fishing with Jim Dunn. It was nothing short of a miracle that I landed the king salmon. It was nearly stolen off my line by a harbor seal.  After that I managed to get over to Montana where I did some Sapphire mining. Then I spent time at Coeur d' Alene Lake where I did a little fishing and and hanging out with my family. Oh, and I turned 60 this summer.
