Found a piece of frozen coho in the freezer dated 10-15-14. A piece of center-cut back loin filleted from the area next to the dorsal fin. Leftovers from a 15# coho that I could not consume fresh before it went bad in the fridge.

The culinary verdict after 6 minutes in the broiler?

OK... there were three good oily bites.... the ones right at the dorsal ridge. The rest was ... WELL... it was frozen salmon that reminded me of all the horrible frozen salmon I ate as a kid growing up in Alaska.

My mind (and palate!) can't help but long for fresh CR springer or URB.

But seeing how neither is practically available in the middle of January, a nice thick slab of ORA KING would probably do in a pinch.
