In the opening paragraph of his classic novel, A Tale of Two Cities, Charles Dickens wrote: "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times...." It's not that he couldn't decide. He was just pointing out the importance of one's perspective. For most salmon fishermen north of Astoria, this past summer was among "the best of times." The harvest was solid, and the prices received by fishermen were very good. According to industry experts, a typical Bristol Bay fisherman took home 30,000 dollar more than last year, which was a fairly good year in its own right.
