From Tim:
If you enjoy a delicious filet of salmon and wonder how a troll-caught salmon left the sea to land on your plate, this post is for you! Hans Weinberg, a career salmon troller and talented photographer, will take you aboard several trolling boats from early morning through late evening. You will experience Southeast Alaska’s rough seas, spectacular mountains and watch how a salmon is taken from the sea, delivered to a fish processor for further preparation before you take that first bite of flaky, moist salmon.
Enjoy a typical trolling day!

Thank you for viewing Hans’s photographs chronicling a work day in the lives of fisherfolk. When you next savor that first bite of a well prepared salmon filet, take a moment to thank the fisherfolk!
