Greetings!
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 29 is a big day for fish at Compost It. I'll be there at 10:00 a.m. with the following goodies, all of which I caught myself:
FRESH CHUM SALMON-caught in Seattle the day before Dressed $3.00/pound
Dressed, over 30-pounds total $2.50/pound
Round (uncleaned) $2.00/pound
Round, over 40-pounds total $1.65/pound
 SOCKEYE SALMON FILLETS-caught and processed in Bristol Bay
Frozen, vacuum-packed $9.00 per pound
SMOKED PINK SALMON FILLETS-caught in Skagit Bay, smoked at Silvana Meats
Frozen, vacuum-packed $10.00 per pound... They're delicious!!!
FILLET DEMONSTRATION
At high noon on Thursday I will demonstrate my tricks and shortcuts on how to clean, fillet, cut up (100% bone-free!), and COOK a salmon (that's right, FREE SAMPLES!!!). Carl Billington will be filming the event to create a You-Tube video that Maureen will post on our blog, so it will always be available to view. This is your chance to see a firsthand, real-life fillet demonstration (if you want a demo in the future I'll just refer you to our blog).
BUTCHER PAPER
I have always hated using plastic bags in selling my fish, so now I am adding the OPTION of taking your fish home in butcher paper, which is completely biodegradable and not made of petro-chemicals. I'll still have my fish bags available, but if you want to go green with your local fisherman, give the butcher paper a try!
IN-SEASON UPDATE
The chum season is going well. It started off good up here in the Salmon Banks when I caught a couple hundred fish, all of which I sold to the residents of San Juan and Orcas Island. Fishing slowed in this area so I moved my program down to Seattle, which is where I will be catching these fish. After Halloween I plan on bringing the boat back up this way and scratching up the tale end of the run around the islands.
Hope to see you on Thursday
