Photos from Paul

Here's a collection of pictures from Paul, documenting things he saw, people he met while at Neah Bay...

This is Donny, the Makah Indian fisherman he met that made the "blue squid" lure that Moby Salmon hooked onto.

Donny chillin' on Trimming, makin' lures!

The infamous "blue squid."

Neah Bay canoe. 

(not necessarily a whaling canoe)

According to their website (Makah.com) the Makah hunt only gray whales and still do it in the traditional manner, in canoes.

Cold, cold COLD Neah Bay was.  This is the ash drawer from the Dickinson Solid Fuel Fireplace we installed in the main cabin.

Makah fishing vessel with "Bullwinkle" rack mounted.  Boat owner told Paul the moose was 1400 lbs. and the rack measures 66" across. 

Sunfish that floundered at the surface,  Paul was told "they sometimes do that."

Looks like he's ready for rain to me!
