It’s not the first time we’ve done this, and I’m sure it won’t be the last…but once again we made dinner plans with friends featuring salmon as the main course, but we forgot to first catch the salmon! With just a few hours to spare before a major menu change would be necessary, Taylor J went down the river bank and saved the day with this beautiful buck! And just to make sure everyone would have enough to eat, 10 minutes later he walked to the dock and hooked a beautiful Sockeye hen to complete the meal. Enough for all and a batch for the smokehouse! Life is Good here on the Kenai River. Nice work son.
Taylor’s Salmon Saves the Dinner!
About the Author: The Alaska Dream
Our family of six has been living the Alaska Dream on the world famous Kenai River for the past 15+ years, enjoying the bounty of the land & sea in everything we do! All of our children were born in Alaska, and both of us have lived here for 30+ years. We love sharing the Alaska Dream with visitors from around the corner and around the world and we especially love to help families and children catch their 1st salmon, halibut or rainbow trout and learn how to care for it all the way through the process of cooking it in delicious gourmet Alaska fashion. Enjoy reading our Alaska Fishing Report, Cooking Alaska Fish & Game, Alaska Photo of the Week and other sections of our website The Alaska Dream and we hope to have the chance to help you experience YOUR Alaska Dream someday too!
