No, I did see 5 drunk buddies who were having fun.  They were loud and poking fun at a few older people who were catching and keeping fish.

That's too bad ... It was quite comical watching my son fall in.  Twice

What irritates me is when people catch pinks then throw them back. I asked the guy "snagged him?" He goes nope its just a pink..... like wtf? Not sure what that aggrivates me so much but it really does. Some people are super fish snobs. I enjoy fishing yea but i fish to eat when its salmon time. Cant afford not to. I eat them all, pinks, silvers, kings, chum. W.e if your gonna throw back your fish people give them to me.

I'll agree with that

We can arrange that. I might not be on the river for a few days now though with these stupid kidney stones.

Nice fish. Color looks real good still for coming up the river. I'll be down there next week when the real combat fishing begins. You can have any pinks I get, except the eggs. All I'm going for is the Silvers and you have to go through a lot of pinks to get one usually. We should get hats made with the new logo so we can identify each other  :hello:

Smossy,

 I know you hit the Puy often, I have read a couple of different things about limits, can you tell me the limits? The regs are a little confusing, and I have looked on a few fishing forums and descriptions of the rules are kind of all over the map. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I don't think anyone is really 100% sure but from my understandings and talking to a few folks on the river. You can keep up to 4 pinks, and 2 chinook or 2 coho, or one chinook one coho and 4 pinks.
Also, I believe if you reach your 2 adult fish limit "combo of coho or chinook, or two of either species..." You have to stop fishing and leave. All pinks are considered adults.

Add me to the list too. Pinks remind me of store bought Alantics, so I would rather throw them back. Maybe someone else will catch them up the river that will actually eat them. :dunno:  If you are ever fishing by me, I'll trade you my 4 pinks for your 2 silvers or kings!  :chuckle:

Id never trade silvers or kings for pinks. But Id never throw a pink back either. I eat them all, smoker or panfry untill skin is crispy.
