Look what my gorgeous boy brought home...

Post by manda »

Toby took Josh out fishing yesterday morning (there are lakes near us that only the children can fish where they put in Salmon a regular basis)...and he brought back a couple of medium size Salmon...so they are now filleted and in the fridge curing ..

tomorrow they'll go in the cold smoker and tomorrow night cold smoked Salmon for tea me thinks... )eat(

He said to me ...that's good for Frugal February isn't it Mum...I love that child...Frugal Smoked Salmon )grin2(

He does now Dom..how he caught these..his dad also takes him out on the river and he's had some decent size Trout about 2.5lbs a piece.

Oh gosh , well done Josh, my dad and grandad were keEn fishermen, never forgotten the rather large eel my grandad caught and hung on the caravan door, YUCK.
I must be a bit of a heathen because I don`t like smoked salmon and I don`t like trout but nice piece of cooked salmon with some salad and new potatoes is a dish to die for in my book.

He is a lovely boy ...I know I'm biased but he is...he amazes me how much he can concentrate with a fishing rod or a bow at such a young age but he just loves it.

Nice salmon, but I think the cutie who's holding the fish outshines them :-D
