I figured it would be a pic of some mega-hawg BUCK steelhead that SOL finally caught this winter ( he said his interests have been elsewhere lately ).

Europeans properly call a male salmon a cock and a female salmon a hen.

In contrast, Canadians refer to them as bucks and does.

Confused 'mericans simply compromise and call 'em bucks and hens. When I first learned these labels as a kid, I thought both names were kind of stupid since nobody is talking about deer or birds.
