jace Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 I haven't posted any of my catches so i figured I should start. The run is not too bad this year for me and I've been getting into these fish past few weeks. They started out a little smaller but now they're getting nice and fat. fresh sea run fish with a really wild fight. for scale, the rapala knife has 9" blade so it's about 14" overall. it's a coho..

Guest Johnny Bass Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Don't you know that fishing with dynamite is illegal in Ontario??Just joking. Nice catch and thanks for sharing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jace Posted August 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 What makes fishermen happier than bloody decks, eh? I've eaten fish every day for a while, i'm coming in with a few fish everyday, giving away a lot of it to friends who are trying to fill their freezers for the winter. I think i'm just about done with my own keep of this fish, on average they clean out to 6-8# each and i need to save room for other species. I believe the local coho derby leader is over 19#, it's too bad more people don't buy derby tickets. If i'm lucky, i'll be able to get photo of a shot fish for you GCD. I think all the hunting people would like it, just seeing it the first time was hilarious to me. ..not to glorify the actual fish shooting part but the whole scenario of seeing a person pull out a handgun to land a fish.

StrealHeader Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Is it just me or did you slaughter a Chinook? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radnine Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 So, if the blade of the knife is nine inches long, I am guessing that there was about three inches sticking out of the other side of the fish each time you stabbed it. How's my math? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jace Posted August 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Is it just me or did you slaughter a Chinook? it's a coho. Kings aren't running where I caught it. It's a pretty big coho, is that why you think it's a king? Check the length of the 1st ray on the anal fin and you can see the white gumline.

jace Posted August 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 (edited) So, if the blade of the knife is nine inches long, I am guessing that there was about three inches sticking out of the other side of the fish each time you stabbed it.How's my math? way off. The girth on this fish is probably 20" and it's around 30" in length. I duplicated the image of knife, copy/paste/rotated it to match the position of the fish. It looks like about 1" coming out the other side. It's big and fat for a coho, but not big compared to others i'm getting. I should take more pictures but i don't really think of it..too busy fishing and getting the lines back in. thanks for the funny comments from all the gore lovers out there. blood soaked gloves and a pair of Bruno Magli shoes coming up.
