different species of halibut. The ones we catch are California Halibut. Those others are Pacific Halibut. I think the smaller ones taste better.

You are so sweet! Thank you so much for the thoughtfulness, compassion, understanding and excellent advice . I was thinking about you as I drove past your exit on I 5 south today. Best wishes to you and your family! What a beautiful California day! I love this state.San Diego has all kinds of really good therapists. Seek out someone with EMDR training and keep on until you find someone you connect with. Being able to process the burden helps immensely. So don't give up, keep searching until you find that person. You are well worth it. You have all my best wishes and thoughts on staying in the game.

This is the entrance to a water trail. It gets to only about 5' wide so paddling is tough and you need a short boat. Fun place to see wildlife though because it's all swampy marsh. All the spider webs where still covered in dew........like strings of pearl's. One year I had a huge snapping turtle right under me. But that's also where we got bombarded with horse flies. So no pics of in the trail sorry. Great morning

I hadn't looked at any wood (settle down, now) in 15 years or so and was walking thru Home Depot and was shocked at how expensive everything was!

Everytime you see any smoke now, I'll bet you're glad as hell you don't have any trees around your new place.

Yes and no. I feel a little safer than where it happened to me before but there’s just so damn many of them nearby. Pretty stressful. This new one started out towards my daughter which is sort of even worse. I can’t do shit if it happens fast.

Oh it’s fucking crap everywhere. I fucking hate wood.
I picked out every stick of lumber for the house except the trusses of course. They supposedly only use the best shit for that and it was still kinda shitty.
@Justin-case I ordered up all the 2x6’s from Payless for the shop. Had them cut to 140”. 12’ tall walls. Now my nail banger buddy said payless got the good shit covered for orders like yours. I said are you sure because their lumber sucks bad just like meeks. Lots of it is uncovered outdoor. My buddy was like trust me bro.
I was fucking so pissed when I cut them picks open when they were delivered. I’d say 1/3 of them were so bad they weren’t even straight enough for blocking. What a fucking joke.
We called those "Neighbor fish" because the flesh is coarse and stringy so if you got one you would pass chunks around to your neighbors.
Besides those big ones are always female - the breeders. A fish like that can produce 100 k + eggs per season.
The last 10 years in AK we released anything over about 60 lbs.

12' are sometimes culls or drops, sounds like what you got anyway. Number one and number one select is usually milled into 16' and 20' lengths. It also helps to keep an eye on the end grain. If the board is cut from the center of the tree, it will almost certainly twist as it dries.
