It’s not much to go on, but I’m hoping someone either remembers or has better Google-fu than I do.

Some time in the late 80s or early 90s I read a YA book about a teen-ish girl in the Aluetian Islands. My most vivid memory is of her description of crabs, calling some “Jimmies,” and going into extraordinary detail about the fishing process. I have the shadow of a memory that she was the first girl/woman to embark on fishing.

That’s all I have to go on. Ring any bells?

    I hope you like it. It was one of my dad’s favorite books!
