Hey friends -
Long timers may remember Southeast troller Rich Bard (F/V Anna), but you may not know that Rich is a fantastic writer. He is, and has published a novel about salmon trolling out of Sitka. "West of Spencer" is available as an e-book through Amazon or Barnes & Noble. I haven't yet read it, but having heard an excerpt and other pieces of Rich's writing, am certain that it'll ring true for a lot of us. More info about the story and links for purchase are in this Hooked post:

Unrelated to "West of Spencer," but still on the story theme: If any of you are coming to Fish Expo, be sure to stop by the keynote area on Thursday the 29th, 11:30 - 1:00. Fisher Poets Pat Dixon, Dano Quinn, Abigail Culkin, Thomas Alan Hilton and I will be performing; should be a good time! Would love to see some trollers there...
Best winter wishes to all -
