I hate to admit it, but when I was younger commercial fishing with my dad in Cook Inlet we netted an 86 pounder headed for the kenai. That's the biggest I saw, but was there when the world record was caught. Another time someone supposedly had one on for over 24hours. We never knew if it was a media stunt or really a 100 plus pounder on that was eventually lost. Those fish have been over exploited by both the commercial and sport (guide) industry.

I remember some news footage of a king "supposed" to be well over 100 lbs on the Kenai, they bent multiple nets trying to net that bad boy and some biologist said by the width of the tail they estimated 110-125lbs. Can you imagine fighting a fish for over 24 hours then loosing it? :'(

Those likely were June hogs that dissapeared with the building of the grand coulee dam.

I think I would have to cut my line if I saw that one surface. I would be scared. What do yo do with something that big? I would have to fillet with a chainsaw
