The fishing at Rockport was terrific this year thanks to the largest run of salmon in
20 years. I caught a half dozen king salmon, the most I've ever caught! Plus, we
started fishing on the day the salmon run was at its highest, and there were no
other fishermen there. We had the entire river and all the fish to ourselves. My
uncle was listening to the radio while we fished, and he heard that Rockport had
elected a new mayor on that same day. He says the mayor is a great fisherman
and will do a good job.
