Sabbatical Essay #Day 29: Salmon Fishing at Seward
Weather was miserable on day 29.
We were set out to go fishing in the sea and it was raining cats and dogs. I’ve survived so far without water proof pants but I gave in that day. Sadly... the pants did not save me from getting all my socks completely wet ... which was the thing I was desperately trying to avoid.
We were at Seward and our boated parted from here.
It was my first time fishing ever and I somehow ended up being the luckiest person on the boat - I caught like... 3 salmons and one little fish when most of my friends didn’t get anything at all.
Even worse, it just would not stop raining while we were fishing out in the sea..... it rained all day without stopping... and everyone was all wet and miserable. We also smelled really bad when we got off the boat.
We had to somehow consume all the salmon I caught that day... we tried but couldn’t there just was too much fish ha ha but it was a wonderful experience to cook and eat Alaskan salmon that I caught my with hands.
