Nice fish

What did it weigh?

Mark251 · « **Reply #2 on:** February 23, 2016, 06:54:19 PM »

Monster salmon

SkookumHntr · « **Reply #3 on:** February 23, 2016, 06:54:37 PM »

Really? I would like to learn more about that! Or hear the story!

Bow tech hunter · « **Reply #4 on:** February 23, 2016, 06:55:07 PM »

I was told in the 50-60lb range

Wow, what a fish! I heard that the fish plants were producing incredible results there but that is really impressive.

No nets, big salmon, i'm moving to Chili.

Bow tech hunter · « **Reply #7 on:** February 23, 2016, 07:01:26 PM »

Ya I think Clancy will be flying back for the banquet and on March 19th in chehalis and then go back to chili to fish again

I would prefer better clarity than chili for fishing salmon, soup is Ok. Cool broth is even better. Less beans to snag also.

Chile should probably be on the bucket list

I'd fish in oatmeal if I had a chance at salmon like that.

Wow awesome fish. Never knew they planted salmon down there they seem to be doing well. Maby take some coho down there as well.

2labs · « **Reply #14 on:** February 24, 2016, 05:41:59 PM »

Looks like every jumbo king I've seen? Too bad the Elwha strain isn't still around!
Apparently it rivals the Kenai genetics!
A great book to read about what this State use to be. Is " We all chocke the same herring" met the author elk hunting and really loved talking to him.

Awesome

My family friend is off to chili today to fish with Clancy holt won't get any pics for a week after he comes back but his first day of fishing is going to be 80 degrees

plugger · « **Reply #17 on:** February 27, 2016, 04:42:06 AM »

I spent a lot of time on the Elwha growing up. We would ride are bikes from P A to fish it it we couldn't get a ride. We would catch kings in the 40 to 50 lb range all the time. I have seen dead ones that would have pushed 60 or better. But there would be less and less every year. Unfortunately for that strain, they were in full spawning mode when the coho's would show up and that's when the nets went in. They would get tossed on the beach and left to rot.

Chile?

fishnfur · « **Reply #19 on:** February 27, 2016, 07:08:38 PM »

One is a country, one is a stew.

Hard to imagine a fish with those genetics came from the Cow or the Lewis recently. I could believe the Elwha or the Skagit, but they haven't seen many fish like this guy in years. What a PIG!

2labs · « **Reply #20 on:** February 27, 2016, 07:14:27 PM »

I've hooked fish on the Elwha that would spool me! Several times! It's only eight miles to the salt and they will go back!

These fish were taken to chile way back when there was the HUGE kings of the columbia. This is no recent plant. This happened along time

wildmanoutdoors · « **Reply #22 on:** February 28, 2016, 07:18:41 AM »

Won't last letting people handle them like that. All these fish are released...not unharmed...

Axle · « **Reply #23 on:** February 28, 2016, 07:36:40 AM »

If I caught a salmon like that, I would provide immediate fillet surgery and warm it up on the grille. I've heard chili can be cold at times.

While my friend is in chile I took my daughter fishing in his pond and she caught a nice trout

huntnphool · « **Reply #25 on:** March 01, 2016, 04:45:47 PM »

Kind of pokes a finger in the eye of all those that believe native fish are superior to planted fish.

Bow tech hunter · « **Reply #26 on:** March 10, 2016, 05:34:29 AM »

Fishing in chile my friend and his brother had a awesome trip biggest was 41 and lost another one that they fought for a while maybe pushing in the 50lb range

Clancy isn't fishing his clients on these farm raised net pen'd turd eaters.

Those fish look like a million bucks compared to the garbage that the Washington State fishery produces.

2labs · « **Reply #36 on:** March 10, 2016, 08:32:42 PM »

Washington could be a Salmon Mecca if we could get a certain group of rapists away from it! Steelhead also!

Agreed.

I look at the skagit every day and think, this river should produce 100x what it does.

The stream on our property in Alaska has bigger runs of all five species and it about the size of the samish.

Pretty sad.

2MANY · « **Reply #39 on:** March 11, 2016, 08:16:51 AM »

I thought I read all these fish are being released???

In nets, on boat decks, held up high, fingers in gills..............Released??

SkookumHntr · « **Reply #40 on:** March 11, 2016, 08:55:58 AM »

Released right into the fish box!
