It had been down so long, it finally looked up to me!<br />The catch yesterday(5/19)was great for the "brave" souls that faced winds up to 45mph to catch the "world" famous salmon. And,Yes the price did drop. You do not put close to 700K lbs on the Seattle market(5/17)and not expect the price to drop. It is not so much the money we make fishing,it is the lifestyle and freedom we live with!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9188370370448778552.post-18502057396358110782011-05-20T07:32:52.650-08:002011-05-20T07:32:52.650-08:00One of the largest openers in history, a $3 millio...One of the largest openers in history, a $3 million dollar day, doesn't mean much?<br /> $4.75 a lb, doesn't mean a thing either.
