SR, Here's your pic. Nice fish!

Nice one!

TIC here: Note the eye.....fish is still healthy and could be released in fine shape!

LIKE THE WIZE SLABHUNTER SAYS " AINT NO NOOKIE LIKE CHINOOKY" by the way is that
blue can?

Fun5,

His eye might be healthy, but I don't think he's going far with no innards.

Besides, WHO would want to go thru the Cathlamet ordeal, catch a tasty hatchery springer, and then RELEASE it??

Not this cowboy.

(But then, I don't know what "TIC" means....does it mean that your kidding?)

"TIC" means tounge in cheek.
it means he is kidding cuz the myth is that alive fish will be looking down at the water and dead fish will be looking up or just missing the eye or whatever by that point.......

Lupo,

Thanks...


Fun5,

My Apologies...
(but at least I learned something new )
