My local state wildlife agency spawns Kokanee Salmon and immediately gives away the milked fish to anyone with a valid fishing license.

It’s always variable how many people show up to a spawning event, but Thursday I scored big and was given about 75 fish. Total haul:

15 Pints canned salmon.

9 Quarts + 4 Pints Nordic Salmon Soup.

7 Quarts + 1 Pint salmon chowder.

10 Lbs filleted and skinless chunks.

2 packages of filleted salmon

  2. I’ve been smoking then canning a good portion of the salmon I catch. I’m going to give retort pouches a try here soon, but I need to upgrade my chamber vac. The one I have right now won’t seal them.

    What do you use the salmon powder for? Is it kinda like salmon boullion?
