Check out this Skeena Hog! I have no idea how large this beastie is! Pictured is a UW Fisheries graduate student collecting morphology and age data in 1990.

Just thought you'd like to see the photo.

hey parker, saw the pic before my HD went south ... we'll find one of those for you in July They grow 'em big in lots of places ... I have seen one that big on the end of our line once ... lasted about five or six seconds and he was nearly eye-level with us as he porpoised past the boat with our planer and spin 'n glo in tow ... never to be seen again

I put the picture back up.

It's a deal, Bob! Would be nice if we could find one a little more chrome then that ol' Ugly Beastie, though.

Heck, if we hook in to something like that, I'm jumping in to the Kasilof to hog-tie and land it! Fortunately, Saukit2em will have his video camera, so the video will make it up on Bob's site for all to see!

Laugh now everyone, but come August, you'll be watching video of me jumping out of Bob's drift boat, with rope in hand, after a 85+ pound Kasilof Hog!

No, Parker, *you* will be the one videotaping us on the Kasilof. People will be impressed when I hold up my 95 pounder with one hand!!!

I'm still jumping in, regardless of who has the fish!

Matter of fact, if any of you see some dude jumping out of a black Thor Built boat this summer, that's just me practicing on some summer steelies!

"Fish on!"

<SPLASH>

"Parker, get your ass back in the boat!!!!!"
