Anybody want to go salmon fishing with me?...get your waders
on...strap on your cleats...buy some Ben Gay...get in shape before
you go...I've done plenty of fishing...all my life...salmon fishing
is, by far, the most physical...trudge a roaring river from dawn to
dusk...take a break for lunch...you'll be draggin' ass...no deck
hands to gaff your fish...you land it yourself...drag them out
yourself...drag 3 fish, 25lbs.-30lbs. each, all by yourself, uphill
for half a mile or more...wearing heavy cleats...it is almost like
dragging a deer by yourself...then you do it again the next
day...they'll be running next fall...I'll show my secret spots.
