Dave went fishing today in Lake Champlain with his buddy; it was brutally cold (water 36 degrees) :huh: and windy but they braved the elements. :silly: :ohmy: He caught this 19" salmon and unfortunately gave it away! :( hopefully more to come!

    Julia, you need to have a serious talk with Dave. Giving away salmon?! :angry:

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    Julia,

    If he didn't give it to an egghead it probably wasn't that great ;) Hope that is some consolation.

    That's the perfect size and the cold water will mean firm meat. I've been open water fishing 4 or 5 times since ice off earlier this month. Any trout I don't cure and smoke, I can.
