Mira Bilis, early on I watched a lone fisherman. He was there every day and I never saw him catch a thing. And obviously your dad was right about the noise.

I do sometimes wonder how many fish they actually catch here, bearing in mind the amount of people who tear up and down the river with noisy engines on their boats. When I used to go freshwater fishing with my dad as a child, he was always telling me to keep quiet so I wouldn't scare off the fish!

Yes, I like this cam.
Mira Bilis04/23/14 21:14
Nice view today ... riverbank and boats.

Mira Bilis, it's surprising how good things taste when you've foraged for them. And you have 11 acres to search. There's probably a veritable banquet out there. :D
Mira Bilis04/16/14 20:56
I should really brush up on my native edible plants ... I know we have cauliflower fungi somewhere on our 11 acres ... not to mention the more obvious mushrooms, salmonberries, etc. This website looks promising ... http://www.northernbushcraft.com/index.htm I could become the Ray Mears of Clallam County, LOL! ;-D
MD04/16/14 20:28
Mira Bilis, it was more fun than packing a picnic! :D
Mira Bilis04/16/14 20:20
Heehee MD ... you could give John Wright from River Cottage a run for his money. ;-)

Mira Bilis, that's how I got hooked, fishing with my dad. Then my first husband and, even after he left, I used to take the kids on my own. We also used to take a book that showed which leaves and berries you can eat in the countryside. If the kids got bored we went "eating." Hawthorn leaves taste nutty!
Mira Bilis04/16/14 19:11
Me too MD ... when I was a kid I used to go with my dad. :-)
MD04/16/14 18:17
Mira Bilis, that's a good link. I like the fact that they specify how many fish can be taken from the river. I used to like going fishing.
Mira Bilis04/16/14 17:41
Fishing for Spring Salmon, according to the info ... http://www.cowlitzriverfishingguides.com/ :-)

A small boat with "North River" on the side just went by. 2 men fishing from it.
Mira Bilis04/05/14 19:33
Fishermen out again.
MD03/20/14 20:43
Mira Bilis, that's quite a river! I've just looked on GoogleEarth and see this is not too far from where you are. It looks a lovely area.
Mira Bilis03/20/14 20:08
Yes, lots of fish ... the Cowlitz is a tributary of the Columbia River. :-)
