Just gotta be there at the right time, I got so lucky with that king its not even funny, ran down river - went into fast water - wrapped herself around a bigass log in the water - shot left into a small pool, so basically my line made a giant L shape in the river around abuncha  stuff, I managed to work her out and she ran into open water and I sat in the small pool and let her get tired. Win win. Probably a good 10 minute fight, Thanks to the guy that was there with a net, There's no way I coulda banked it where I was.

You did a good job on the fillet. I'm still learning how to fillet.

Lol thanks guys, Just wanted to show that there ARE some nice fish in the rivers. All but 3 of those fish are kings, Two being jacks. The pinks Ive been getting this year are nickle chrome and meat is coming out red red red. That filet is from a pink this year.

I wet a line today.  Caught soo many pinks my arms are worn out.  Did get one nice 12 pound bright chrome king to take home.  I am not a big fan of pinks so those got released.

I fish to eat, I don't let anything go unless the kings are really thick or the fish is unreasonably small, Seen a few 4-6 inch pinks caught.

I'm the same way man, fishing has been good this season, and I need meat in my freezer do I so I keep the pinks and honestly I like them.

To me there's nothing to hate about them besides the peoples weird hatred for them, They taste great baked, they taste even better smoked. An almost guaranteed fish...
With this being said as long as the meat has color. No marble fish.

I totally spaced. Has it been 10 days already? Lol
Yeah I believe he did I'm getting a hold of him right now just to double check. I've already got the small one rebuilt just need to get the title transfered haven't had the funds. Hopefully there is no problem when we actually go do it because of the time frame or whatever.

Pitbulls Pinks are just misunderstood,
There are no bad fish just total sleazy littering scumbags that seems to congregate on the rivers during the pink runs. LOL

Besides where else can you see someone filleting out the black boot with scabs all over it that just bumped your legs on its float back down stream, lol.

I have seen some nasty fish taken home.
Which amazes me because there are plenty bright fish like those beauties you show in your picks?

Nice job as Smossy
Thanks for sharing your pics!
