They sure don't get much prettier do they?

That's a really nice hen chum, FP. We have got into over a hundred chumkins so far this season and only 2 were really chrome like that fish you have pictured. One was a buck that Todd caught and it was as chrome as they come.

Nice fish, the eggs in those chrome hen chums are reaaallllly nice too!

Nice arrangement in another beautiful picture.

Sword Fern, Ginko & Vine Maple. Set up looks like the fish was ready to be eaten! Nice colors. Especially the CHROME.

Oh, Japanese Maple & Ornamental Cherry too.

Awesome pic Doc.....

Very Nice! Doc.
Do you like running si-wash on your Kwikies better than trebles?

Your not a Doc your a photographer--

Nice

That's as pretty a pic as I have ever seen of a salmon, thx for sharing.

Nice fish!

Doc, you've got a Keen Eye for great photos

Nice fish but I am drooling over the plug covered in teeth marks and the ring of life on the Bill. I wish I could find more K-15's in that color.

Now that chum would be one that I would eat. Great pic too!

I call that one "Measles" and it has caught more fish than any other KwikFish in my current collection. I've had the plug since 1996. It has taken fish in 3 states including all five species of Pacific salmon (OK the one and only sockeye I ever caught on a KwikFish was actually snagged on top of the head) rainbow trout and Dolly Varden. One of these days I'm sure I will catch a steelhead on that thing while fishing for springers.

Famous last words.... or should I say end of an era.




No more drooling necessary, and certainly no chances of catching a steelhead with old "Measles". The "Ring of Life" on this veteran plug was permanently snuffed out when it came face to face with the snag from hell (OK, the Chehalis) this morning. The battle scarred K-15 is now officially history... and boy was there a lot of history over nine seasons.

I don 't know what's more depressing.... losing that plug, or chalking up the first skunk of the season on the HMS eyeFISH

As Parquito would say, my boat went "opher" one pulling plugs today. Unless you guys want to count the 6" sculpin that got double skewered by both siwashes on a K-15.

Feeling the urge to rid myself of wreaking skunk, I made a quick run up to Hoodsport for some flyrod chum action. The dogs did not disappoint.... went 4 for 8 in a couple of hours before the night closure. The biggest was a 15# snaggle toothed buck. Saw a fresh carcass (eyeballs still intact) laying on the beach that was a solid 17-18# at least... WOW big dog!

BTW, nice meeting you there Add-E-Pose (sp?)

I checked in store where I work and found that we have two of the plugs in question, albeit in the K11 size.

The color combination is called

Nickel Firedot

The SKU is 5413-011-050 I suspect the first four numbers are the style, the middle 3 are the size and I have no idea on the last three.

The UPC is 012553322263

With those two numbers and the name, you should be able to query your local sporting goods store about ordering up some plugs.

Hope this helps. Good luck.

Dude,
Nice meeting and fishing with you at Chumville...enjoying your Artography.

A.D.

Got a studly guy-fish to go with that pretty girl of yours, Doc, even if he is the wrong species. Check out the shoulders on this bad boy.

Nice fish Dan! Looks like he'd make a great dance partner for this pretty girl:

Cool match makers!
