Just got an offer to be a deck hand on a boat for king salmon season. Super excited, Turns out the guy I have been talking to about fishing here on the lake is a captain and he was like. "hey you wanna go do this for a job?" hahah yes, yes I do.

That’s awesome, good luck!

[@cadesalem3419]

Can you get me a job? Lol

[@collinmc90]

@@cadesalem3419 man I wish. I feel so fortunate. I wish we lived back in the day when a man was given a job based on his will to work. So much BS these days just to get a complete BS dead end job. Good luck brother.

Excellent ! The weather for your shots was epic, I don’t miss the rain in SE that was the norm during my short tenure there. Your descriptions and cautions were spot on- Hat's off to you!
