Pictures Taken at 7 AM--Early Morning Chum Anglers







The pictures are a little grainy because it was barely light out. Today in the paper there was a story about how a certain animal rights group was beginning a campaign in Seattle to make people have more empathy with fish---to think about how fish feel and how brilliant they are. The goal is to make us think that eating fish is no different than eating our pets.

Hmmmm! I am sorry but they are not going to have much luck with their efforts in fish crazy Seattle where fishing is a huge part of our economy and a huge part of our social and cultural being. Somehow, I do not equate the slab of frozen salmon fillet on my counter top this very moment for dinner tonight with my big warm fuzzy Apolo sleeping on the couch.
