I'm not saying don't eat dark fish.  If people enjoy them there is no reason not to eat them.  I say more power to ya if you enjoy eating them!

I had a guy give me a really dark king salmon off the Umpqua R. all the way up by Roseburg.  He tried reviving it but couldn't, so he gave it to me as I walked by.  I was making $60/month with a place to stay, so I didn't turn fish, any fish, down.  I figured I could smoke it if it was soft, but it was still awesome, grilled, baked, and smoked, it was about 35 pounds.   :)

What time of year?  That could have been a springer.

July, I think.

That explains it.  I'd rather eat a couple month old springer than a chrome bright winter steelhead.  That is comparing apples and oranges to a dark fall fish.

I know the pic is horrible but it is my first salmon, and still my biggest, and best day on the water! This is my buddy, me (in the middle) and my dad. Dad still says he caught the second largest one but wouldn't we all...

I can't say its my favorite picture but it was a lot of fun to catch on the fly rod. On the sky a few years back.
