"Summer started out as usual for me,
but with little hope of having enough water on the Yukon to
commercial fish and to travel on. My hopes for higher salmon prices
were also dampened by hearing about the fish farms flooding the
market with farmed salmon. This made getting ready for commercial
fishing not as exciting as it had been in other years. We had hoped
to have a good summer of fishing and then to put away a lot of dried
salmon for the winter. However, many of these "noble" goals weren't
met.
In June, we started commercial
fishing. We knew that "most" of the King salmon had already passed
because they were early this year. Spring was also about two weeks
early. Many days before we had our commercial fish opening, everyone
was expecting low fish prices. That prediction came out pretty
accurate. We had our lowest salmon prices since before the '70's. And
the fish price did not change. That was the pits! Our local and
regional economy was extremely low for the first time that I can
remember. We all had a very poor summer. On the "flip-side," however,
we had the largest number of marriages in Marshall ever in a single
season.
When July came I was selected by our
parish priest to be ordained as a Subdeacon. On July 11, 1996, I was
ordained in Russian Mission by the Bishop at the Annual Russian
Orthodox Yukon conference.
My summer felt too short. I wish that
it felt a lot longer. But don't we all wish it were that
way!"
