1000 pound sturgeon!
Hi
As I mentined before here, my sweedish step dad commercial fished off
the OR-WA coast in the late 50s up to 1980. When I was a about 10 it
was not unusuall for him to bring home green sturgon that half would
hang out the bed of a pickup: 500 lbs was about right, We never though
anything diffrent. Just ate lots of sturgon and traded it.
But the big ones were on display at the Bonneville Fish hatchery. But
my uncles worked on the Columbia river when the Dalles Damn was built
1940s Thats where they say the really big river sturgon. When some
rock was blasted for the Damn 16'+ fish were floating to the top.
Kinda like killing a readwood. takes a long time to grow one.
So have a seen change in my life, yup
WHat have I learned....... Repubicans have no respect for the past.
They are like spoild children who only want immediate gratification
and do not care, respect, or regard the past or futre. They call it
other things.... but actions speak lounder than their words. Just look
at the results of their actins and yo will see a self serving spoild
brat.
