On the Fifth Day . . .

"And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.  And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.  And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth."  Genesis 1:20-22

The year 2014 was one in which "the waters brought forth abundantly" at Whale Pass.  The summer Coho salmon run was the largest ever and the weight of the salmon was much larger than usual.  The chart below compares 2014 to previous years.
