[ed. These are the days when I really miss Alaska. My buddy won the Seward Salmon Fishing Derby in Resurrection Bay one year ($10,000) after catching a 20+ lb. coho. We had a double strike (both monsters), but my fish (the bigger one of course) shook the hook right at the boat. He treated us to a great dinner though.]
