Tom the Fisherman

Posted in Talking Fish at 11:42 am by Will Ware

We have this old timer who fishes King Salmon for us each summer. He’s got to be well into his 80′s and fishes on a little boat with a hard hat on. He came in the other day after a few days of fishing straight and told us he was a little tired and going to take the next off. The next day while driving down the road, I saw him out mowing his lawn and tending his garden. Tough old guy!

He comes from the old school of fisherman who when taking a break, never really do take a break.

Tom has probably forgotten more about fishing and how to catch King Salmon than most fisherman will ever really learn.

So…Tom, our hats are off to you. And while you will probably never read this blog, we salute you and say keep reeling ‘em in.
