The Blue Night Comes to an End


Cool
Fish in the night
Fish for what I love to eat
Fish for lush
Fish until I get shivering cold
Fish until we see the sunset turn to cool blue night
Fish until the night turns to dark
with starts lingering and sparkling at night
Fish on the ice with tracks of different types of animals that lurk at night
Fish for that is the time of the year
Fish Fish Fish
This was taken yesterday. I was fishing on the
Kuskokwim side of the river. I love the sunset
and had to take this picture before my camera
ran out of battery. Good thing I did because
after taking couple of pictures, my camera ran
out of battery. I love this because loving to fish
at night for lush and fishing with friends or
famly is alot of fun. This day, I was fishin alone
and I felt lonely on the ice with no one to talk
too. I had lots of nibbles but the lush fish kept
taking my bait away. But, enjoying the weather
and the night seens makes the whole fishing night
to remember with no fish or not. Just the fresh
cool air makes the night so wonderful. The cool
thing about it is seeing the lights around me,
the planes that travel a far a distance to its
destination, Alaska Air coming for the last trip
of the day to Bethel, the people that roam at
night wanting to go here to there, people that
love to fish the night, and see the last night of
the day is memorable for another day comes
and goes....This is my way of spending the evening
out fishing for Lush and just be out there. The
scary part of it all is, people that try to roam
secretly travel by snow machines or by walking
and surely happened that day. So, my day got cut
short. I went home early because of those roamers..lol
They should have stayed home but we can't do anything
about that because they are roamers of the night..
Till the next day.....Fish Fish Fish again.....

This was taken last year. Its that time of the year, where we can't travel on the river because we are isolated from traveling any where on the river. This is what we call, " A bumper."There are so many wishes we all have when its like this: wish we had an airport, wish we had a road to Bethel, wish the weather would stay cold for three full cold days, so that we can travel on the back trail on a snow machine. I can recall those moments when I worked in Bethel. I tell you, its the scariest moments ever...But having to be the only girl in my family, it was not that bad. I grew up with two boys and just me. I hope you all enjoy my picture.
