Check out this great blog by a new friend! Adventures in cooking with Local Legends Angler's Choice Fish Marinade, Santa Maria Seasoning, and Gourmet Wild Rice Blend ...

This healthy wild game recipe consists of marinaded salmon, baked red potatoes, and wild rice. To help me in the flavor department, I settled on trying some hunter oriented food products from Local Legends. According to this Texas based company, their seasonings and marinades are developed by hunters for hunters and that was all I needed to hear to give them a try.

Today's recipe stands for that entrepreneurial spirit and drive to not only be successful, but the desire to give back to the community and keep small-town, country living traditions and values alive and well.

Last fall, my good friend Ed Coutts of Yuba City and I attended a shotgun shooting exhibition in Colusa. More than 1,000 hunting and gun enthusiasts gathered to watch Tom Knapp, who is recognized as the greatest exhibition shooter of modern times, give a really cool demonstration.
