A smiling fisherman stands on the river front of Astoria, Oregon

I've been a commercial fisherman for over 30 years. I was all set up to go down and be a diesel mechanic in Arizona. When I graduated high school, I came up and made three drag trips - and went a whole different way. I love it. It's been a good life.
