From the Anchorage Daily News (adn.com):

"The celebrated and lucrative Copper River salmon fishery opened at 7
a.m. Thursday under overcast skies, with commercial fishermen near
Cordova scooping 1,549 kings and 20,216 sockeye out of the water."

The story goes on to say that prices are down somewhat from last year,
although still too high because of all the hype. One Seattle
wholesaler was asking $25/lb.

It's great tasting fish but not for us at that price.

We had turbot from TJ's frozen fish case yesterday. Nice, easily pan-
fried, mild-tasting, affordable. -aem
