Thanks Dan. It sounds like you have a very active day without trying to catch fish intent on not eating anything including lures or bait.

Useless to say I like them very much. Jealous there are no bears here.

I do not. In my youth I worked commercial fishing. So I don't fish for pleasure. I harvest protein with the intent of minimum time and cost for maximum harvest. When we do catch salmon, we do so in the ocean before the fish have started suffering the deprivation of the river journey. They stop eating when they enter the rivers and immediately begin to lose weight, particularly oil/fat content. We only eat ocean run fish.

Maybe a little bit off topic, but not so long ago I shot a tin of salmon. It was caught in the north east part of the Pacific, that must be your direction. The tin says "ingredients: rose salmon(contains fish)". I have to find out what that means.
