This is salmon season and very nice and large sockeye salmon are available at very reasonable price. Here is a 5-pounder dressed at just C$25. It is not possible, of course, to eat all of it all at once. Smoking and curing much of it are just great ways to make it last.



Filleting a big fish isn't that difficult just need a little practise and a very shape knife. This takes me all five minutes. Not exactly perfect but quite usable at home.
