I took this picture of my daughter, minutes after she came into the marina with this 33.1 lb Tyee Salmon, she has a 14 ft. boat, and she was fishing all by herself, took her about 15
min. to hook the fish, and about 20 min. to land it. She had a tough time hauling it into
the boat, in the net, but determination won the day, (she is 5ft. 3in.)
It caused quite a fuss at the Comox Marina, the big guy holding the fish, ran and found
this scale, the crowd ran out from the pub, someone shoved a beer into her hand, much
excitement, for sure, and the story ended up in our local newspaper, with a comment,
that, photographer is unknown, hmmmm.
