Today is your day Boomer! It is the ultimate Boomer day excursion....salmon fishing off the inner coast of Vancouver Island, near Campbell River the self-proclaimed "Salmon Fishing Capital of the World". That's what I encountered yesterday as I met a group of six Boomers returning from fishing in the late afternoon of a beautiful day on the water. Each of them had a nice suntan, a buzz-on from a few beers and a big bucket full of Spring Salmon. If you didn't know, the Spring or sometimes called Chinook Salmon, are the biggest and maybe-the-best fighting salmon on Canada's west coast. These guys had three each with the biggest being around 21 pounds; they also had lots "fish stories", lots of laughs, and a great time together. What lay ahead in the evening? Fish cleaning, a big dinner at a local fish resort, and a few more beverages....I'm sure. Two of them had even travelled from California for this fantastic experience! It's what we can do Boomers. Many of us have the time, money, and inspiration to get out there, do something unique, and experience retired life after 30-40 years of work and raising kids. I say go for it!! Cheers.
