I have had several people ask me how Sam got the fish that he caught back to Texas. It was so easy!!!!
The fishing resort where he was staying, processed the fish and froze them solid and packed them in special coolers. They were then loaded on the plane, along with Sam's luggage. Sam landed at DFW in Dallas and went straight to the luggage claims area and his FISH were there, right beside his luggage.
All together, each guy on the trip was able to bring home about 65 pounds of fish. I didn't realize how much 65 pounds would be, but it filled up a complete section of my freezer.
Just like the ivory tusk on an elephant.
One of the guys that was fishing with Sam, saved the Ivory Ear Bones from one of these fish and is going to have some earrings made for his granddaughter.

By the way.....Sam, along with the other 3 guys on his boat.....caught 4 small sharks. They threw them back!
My friend, Pam @ Pam's Midwest Kitchen Korner........always has great recipes for cooking fish. I'll have to re-visit some of those recipes to make some great meals out of these fish. Y'all stop by her place and check out all of her great recipes...
Enjoy the rest of your day....

ReplyDeleteHi Shug!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, I have been away too long...fishing in Alaska, how wonderful!! The photos were beautiful! You will love having that 65 lbs of fish in your freezer, so you can re-live Alaska with every bite!
My son worked in Alaska for a time and my aunt lived there. Bob's aunt lived there most of her life, and I have a cousin who lives in Anchorage...lots of ties to that beautiful part of the world! it's a gorgeous place to visit.
Thanks for sharing!
