Nice!
My dad has gone the last three days in a row and caught his limit every time, so I get some for my freezer too!

Just a thought, but did any of you guys take a minute to consider letting them live to reproduce?

Thats great..
The run is pretty good this year and the action was great down the line. Tight lines all around.

Yes I did give it some thought.. my final thought on the topic is, "The DFO only allows a limmit of two per angler." Dont get me started.. This is the first opening in 4 years.. Though previous years showed good numbers of returning Sockeye the DFO still didnt have an opening. This is within the law and I am doing nothing wrong so please keep the green comments out of my thread.
Thank you for your concern.

I dont mean to seem harsh and I understand the enviroment needs taking care of. I am an avid angler and respect the laws that have been put in place. I do take some offence to comments regarding releasing fish when the opening is to harvest them for food and though some may dissagree with this, it is the law.
Thank you for the comment.
