Threw the taters on 20 mins earlier to get some smoke on them…asparagus soup… I couldn’t believe this little guy didn’t move while I was at the grill…he was picking off fat bees on the flowers…

Braised lamb shank, lentil ragout…

Mt Rainier from my backyard…

While I do have hickory planks for longer cooks, this was a cedar plank...well soaked, barely got singed until the fish was 130 and perfect...it is primarily for indirect heat. I added a couple small chunks of applewood for smoke...

Nice day for grilling…white king salmon, with compound butter, Okinawan sweet potato. 5% of king (Chinook) salmon have an aberration in the dna that doesn’t allow them to absorb the pink/orange pigmentation from krill and shrimp they feed on as smolts

Finished the trip with 2 days on the Yakima & Cle Elum rivers…seriously windy, gusting to 25-30…a bunch of small fish, but still managed a couple decent bows & cutties…

Early dinner so we can head out to the river for a couple hours before dark…sunset bite

Wheel sensor…

A couple humu’s (triggers)…it wasn’t a fishing trip, more about checking on our property…but I can’t help bringing a rod along…heading tomorrow to my favorite river in WA

Fishing from our property in North Kohala…
