And here is a photo of the island. You can barely make out the river on the other side. When we (I and my b'friend who will not be joining me SNIFF!) visited at Christmas & Jim was showing off the meadow, he mentioned that spawning salmon swim up the river in the fall & the babies come down in the spring. You should have seen my jaw drop. No doubt the look on my face said, "SOLD!"

He says they get as big as 4 feet, and my fisherman father says that would make them king salmon.

What a sight that must be ... though will I have to watch for something called "salmon poisoning" if Osita turns out to have a taste for them?
