Not anyone specifically, just in general. Who cares if it was a resident or early ocean returney? Why does it matter? Go fishing and enjoy it.

No kidding!  Like people are ashamed of catching a resident. They all eat good!   I pointed out that it was a resident coho because someone was trying to say pinks should be here because they caught a coho. That's not correct. Pinks will be here soon enough, and the ocean coho will be on their tails.

I honestly think it depends on how the said Coho identifies itself; whether it selects "resident" or "non resident."
If you aint hunting, you aint livin'

Now this is a whole nother ball of wax. Maybe they don't like being called silvers, but identify as kings? Pinks is a name with inherent feminine undertones, so now we're assuming their identity!?!?! So unfair, they really need to be shiny salmon-like fish with spots that may or may not have migrated to the ocean and might have spots on its tail, or dark gums. Not that theres anything wrong with dark gums or spotted tails!

Poor species, not only do they have the nickname of humpies, their true name is pinks. But not only that they're are also known as small and soft!
They need to seek shelter in Elliot Bay so I can take care of them!
My interpretation of the rules are open to interpretation.
Once I thought I was wrong but I was mistaken.

Why are we having a pissing match over this?

I agree, why not be out there catching kings right now, fishing has been outstanding

Oh I have scratched a few kings out for sure.  MA11 is my home turf but fishing has been a bit slow so I have been hitting the other "hot" spots to fill the freezer.  Res or non res makes no difference.

God I almost forgot about the dreaded nick name. Now we're all assuming their sexually promiscuous. I sense a lawsuit coming.

Please refer to them as fishself until they can choose their preferred pronoun.  Otherwise you are being ableist and transphobic.

Landed two off Eagle Point,  SJ today. Both deep, 110-115, nothing on the center dive plane. Lost about a 20 pound King right at the boat.  My rookie netter wasn't quite quick enough. 😣

No,  and probably not even if Pinks come back in higher numbers than predicted.

But it shows ok to fish the rivers right? Why not close them if numbers are so bad?
