Weekend Vallecito and Puett

Would you believe we didn't catch a Walleye this weekend? Naaah. Today at Puett we felt the subtle taps but they never amounted to anything. Low pressure, a new moon, overcast skies, it all seemed so perfect. The road in wasn't plowed so that was a bit of an adventure but proved to be not so bad. We brought cross country skis just for grins and it turned out to be a nice way to get out to the hole. Yesterday we fished Vallecito in a blizzard and that was a good time, we came back with some Kokanee, who were biting like crazy but again, pretty tough to hook. I tried something different with them this time. I baked the fish and removed all the meat and make sure there were no bones in it. Then I mixed Siracha pepper sauce with some mayo and salt and mixed in the fish. I used this mixture to fill nori rolls and it was really good. Sushi rice is a bit tricky, but once you get the hang of it, it is a great way to serve cooked fish too! Walleye on the brain, but none on the plate.
