Im with you. First anything right out of the water like that will be excellent to eat. That may be big but its still very brite. I bet the meat was beautiful nice red meat. My mouth was salivating looking at the pic. I ate the smaller 3-6 pounders this year but I cant imagine that one tastey fishy at all. Thats a beautiful fish.

Big boy!
There are some achievements which are never done in the presence of those who hear of them. Catching salmon is one, and working all night is another.

That hawg give you bragging right bro! I only pick 'em up that big a few times a season, and a chromer to boot! Well played. Those Cowlitz type N fish aren't messing around, fish that size are rare up here. I've caught 'em, but not like I used to on the coast. It's almost a shame that he's not putting his genes back in the pool, but like I said "almost"!

By the way, they've upped the hatchery to native ratio pretty thick starting last week:
http://www.mytpu.org/tacomapower/parks- ... report.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Looks like over 700 coho in the Tilton last week were hatchery hot dogs and the water level has been very 'fishable' last few days:
http://waterdata.usgs.gov/wa/nwis/uv/?site_no=14236200" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Should be a lot of hatchery coho for the taking with 6 fish limit if the water levels hold.
SSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Tilton is a SECRET yo! Nobody is supposed to know about the two hour limits of big fish! I mean, who wants to drive for 2 1/2 hours just to limit out 45 minutes after you got there. No fun at all! And besides, it's not like the fish the dump up there are that great anyways.
![Scared [scared]](./images/smilies/msp_scared.gif)
My cooler can't hold 12 fish, let alone if I brought more than one person, that's 18 fish, one trip out and My freezer is puking fish on my kitchen floor everytime I open the door
![Cursing [cursing]](./images/smilies/msp_cursing.gif)
. No good.
