Composed by Lloyd Arntz. Arranged by Larry Nickel. Folk song. Octavo. 8 pages. Cypress Choral Music #CP 1442. Published by Cypress Choral Music (C3.CP-1442).

This was written for my father, Arnt, in 1971 for his 81st birthday, He was still a commercial fisherman operating a one man troller in the Strait of Georgia, now renamed The Salish Sea. The song describes a fabulous day of fishing out of Port Hardy back in the days when the salmon were still plentiful and as the song says, literally, " flashed silver all over the bay." The song has been recorded at least eight times by various artists in Canada and the US after it was brought to the attention of folk music fans by my daughter, Holly.
