Fran's Last Fishing
Trip
"On August 21st I went on the last
fishing trip with my fishing permit. Next year and the years after
the permit goes to Garrett, if he graduates from high
school.
Well, we almost overslept because I
forgot to set the clock but my nephew Morris came to the rescue. He
woke us up at 3:35 A.M. and we left at 9:00 A.M.
We fished for Chum and Coho salmon
for four hours and averaged 30 minutes a drift. Our first drift was
our best drift, and we caught about 3/4 of a tote. Then the run died
down as it always does every opening because of all the fishermen on
the Yukon. For the four hours that we fished we only caught about two
totes of fish, one tote of Chum and 3/4 tote of Coho. Right after our
last drift Ben Peteroff and David Evan stopped by us and we told Ben
we would take him and his fish down to the fish processor. Then we
left to deliver the fish to Boreal Fish Processors which is located
about 1/2 a mile below Pitkas Point. On our way down we stopped by
Alex Evan's boat and asked him what he was going to do. Then we
stopped by Charlie Evan's boat and asked him what he was going to do.
Charlie said he was going to go home because he didn't have enough
fish. He also had motor problems, so he gave us some fish and some to
Alex.
While going down to Boreal the river
got rough below St. Mary's, and we had to go through some choppy
water. At Boreal we waited about an hour to unload our fish because
we didn't have a long line. After we sold our fish we went to St.
Mary's to buy some things at the stores there. First we went to Yukon
Traders to pick up the mop I forgot earlier this summer. The store
clerk taped the mop to my hand as a joke. After that we went to the
other store where I picked up some other things. Then we left for
home where we arrived around midnight.
That was my last commercial fishing
trip.
