Salmon is one of the most sought-after fish on the west coast and packs a ton of nutrition in a little chunk of meat.
This thread is on the popular salmon species anglers like to pursue.
I will do a thread or two later on techniques we use to catch these tasty fish.
This is a short collection of 7 fish pictures to help you select the best fish from your local market.
Clear and healthy-looking eyes are the biggest identifier of fish quality.
You need 3 hobbies:
A physical hobby.
Fishing from shore, float tube, kayak, boat, etc.
A mental hobby.
Reading maps, predicting weather, programming gps unit, etc.
A creative hobby.
Pouring soft plastics, carving lures, painting jigs, etc.
Be a whole human.

The fault lies with the bank, its board and executive leadership and to any funds that required funds of portfolio companies to sit at SVB.
Not taxpayers responsibility.

His story has brought back sad memories of a friend that chose that path after having his life blown up due to Covid restrictions on his new venture.
None of our mutuals realized it was as bad as it was until too late.
Be there for your bros if you know things are failing.
This kid can fish.
Not only is he handlining his catch while fishing out of a homemade boat from a large barrel, but he also has a livewell system to keep his catch fresh and provide for his family.

Here's a general fish processing thread to end up with a quality product.
If you are squeamish, move along.
We do these steps to honor the fish and ensure it is at its best quality versus just stuffing them in a box to asphyxiate which is common in many commercial operations.

Never underestimate the power of the barbie fishing rod.
More bets have been won than you can imagine with a barbie rod spooled up with braided fishing line.
What rod and reel to get.
I am a 100% believer in the kid fishing rods.
Let them pic out whatever batman, barbie, spiderman themed rod they want from Walmart.
As I have mentioned elsewhere, these rods are tough, check out these dudes catching albacore tuna on a barbie rod.

They chose to be with the bank for all the benefits that it provides.
Apparently, it had a significant negative and the consequences of that are not the taxpayers fault.
Smoked fish is a favorite at the halibut hut. I pulled several pieces out of the freezer and smoked up a batch.
We smoked coho salmon, albacore tuna, ling cod, and cabezon.
It all starts with a simple cure.

No more big government bail outs, its a principal thing.
SVB played the game the way they wanted and it burned everything down, it's on them, their executive leadership, their boards past and current, they made the decisions that led to this. Taxpayers not responsible.
Let’s get you into the 10% of fishermen that catch 90% of the fish.
Here’s one of my go-to lures that can catch almost everything that swims.

Catching bluegill is the gateway drug to a lifetime of fishing.
Found in all 50 states these aggressive fish are the perfect target species when looking to get your kids their first fish.
One year in the jungle recap.
Started this account last July without a specific focus in mind.
I had another anon account on twitter that I used for following political and world news and wanted a clean slate with a drastic reduction in the political chatter.

Absolutely!
Why eat this junk when there is a beautiful hatchery and wild fish out there.
Support more hatcheries folks, those fish swim freely in the ocean and come back for harvest no reason to not support more hatchery fish over farmed salmon junk.
These last two charts show how the whole fish starts to degrade with time on ice.
If the gills have not been removed they should be deep bright red not pale. The skin and scales should shiny not dull.
Wakeboard bros, when the storm kicks up, find a place to ride it out.
If you go to shore and try to turn into massive rollers you will have a bad time.

Go fish and the dude parking a boat to the right is making 35K a year and the dude to the left is making 1m a month.
Never know who you will meet at the marina.

@BowTiedRanger
Exactly.
I'm sure this woman is thinking about the carbon footprint of her country as she walks multiple miles per day several times per day just for dirty water.
@BowTiedFox
You nailed it on the head Fox.
People who have not spent good chunks of time in the third world have no idea how bad things can really be.
We have it so good in this little sliver of time in a handful of countries around the world.

I'd be grateful for anyone that can share one of these posts to help me reach more people that like to fish and spend time on the water.
