There are some achievements which are never done in the presence of those who hear of them. Catching salmon is one, and working all night is another.

Look for Wannafish A Lure on FaceBook

He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.

Yes, slaughter line. There were up 3 people at the Blue Creek island both sides hooking up each time we went by. They were lining the bank and they were slaying them. Now wouldn't that make it a slaughter line? :pirat:

I fish not because I regard fishing as being terribly important, but because I suspect that so many of the other concerns of men are equally unimportant, and not nearly so much fun. ~ John Volker
