What a beautiful red colour to the salmon! The shots of the barbeque are making my mouth water!!!! OMG!! Stay safe and healthy! Looking forward to future videos!
Thank you so much for showing the fishwheel and filleting! I miss getting those beautiful reds from the wheel. That jewel-like red is absolutely beautiful ❤ This video brought me a lot of joy. Nothing beats Copper River sockeye!
Yes, it's an innovative way. I keep trying to find the origin. It seems like the technology came over with the Europeans during the Gold Rush era in the late 1800s.
This was so interesting and enjoyable to watch. I love your videos and how you share your simple way of life. I try to save your new videos for Sunday mornings….in the quiet of the morning… with a cup of tea. Thank you for your efforts to share with us. 🙂 you are appreciated.
Wow ! What a great innovation to catch , Salmon. There Couldn't be an easier way . Do you only cook the fillets and throw away the rest or make soup which could be delicious and nutritious ?
I have seen fish filleted many ways. Cutting off the fins just ensures nothing will get in the way, and it makes for a little smoother cut. That's about it.

Thank you. Yes, they are very tasty and as my daughter once said, "Not another salmon summer." Yes, it is.

Any time! I'm glad this video helped bring back some great memories.
Hello friend, I never saw salmon caught this way. You always learn. I'll have to jump over the "puddle" and take a walk around. 😊

Thank you. You are very kind. I appreciate the support.
That fishwheel is cool! Works good too!
Yes, it does work very well, although it does require quite a bit of maintenance because the Copper River beats it up.
Those salmon look delicious!
Yes, fresh out of the Copper River. It's hard to go wrong when cooking them.

I don't make soup our of the carcasses. The fish are filleted pretty clean by the time I'm through with them.
Good eatin’
Yes, tasty and nutritious and wild!
Thanks
Thank you.
What about bears getting into the fish box unattended?
Good question. That’s pretty rare. Lots of moving parts on a Fishwheel that seem to make the bears uneasy.
I never understood why cutting off the fins is preferred. I see it over and over and have never done that myself. Why is that?
