On a recent charterboat salmon fishing trip we made the longrun back to the dock under a bright sun, The deckhand cleaned the fish but then left them out in the sun. He even put those thick, white fillets of bottom fish in plastic sacks and left them in the sun. Aclosed plastic sack is one of the most efficient collectors of solar heat we have. Ina very brief time the contents can become hot to the touch. Yet there were those fillets, getting soft and taking on a rank, fishy flavor because of the heat. Apparently no one ever told the deck hand the facts of fish care. It would have been so easy to keep the cleaned fish in the covered fish'box or at least in the shade. On other trips I've seen skippers or deck hands turn on the pump and run cold sea water through the fish box several times during the day to Herb Williams ~~ keep the fish cool. Salmon treated that way keep their delicate flavor. which makes them one of the world’s great culinary delights, and white fish if cared for will keep that firm flaky texture as well as their delicate taste. = * @ Find water and you usually find bullfrogs, which are a lot of fun and some of the world's best eating. Backwaters of reservoirs, lakes with aquatic weeds around the shorelines, even some slow-moving streams hold these critters with their boom- ing voices, Frogging is a night-time business and when you're out on the water with only your gig and a flashlight, you get a completely different feeling than when fishing the same water during the day. Your light should be water * resistant sova dunking won't harm it. It should have a strong, bright beam, not a diffused glow. You can make your gig handle from an old broom or mop handle, tapering one end so it will fit into the gig. A gunny sack or a produce sack attached to your belt or secured in your boat will keep the frogs after you get them. Be sure to have a partner for safety. Even if you're wading a stream you know, it’s easy to take a wrong step and go in over your head. And don't mind that way the legs keep kicking in the frying pan.
