No measurement on the weight, girth, length. The tail of the fish was so thick that I had trouble grabbing it firmly. After a couple of photos it was back to the run. It was very close to the biggest coho salmon I've held (look at the depth of the fish). I estimated to be at least 15lb, Itosh seems to think smaller than that. ;D

Rodney weighs about 55lbs so that fish is probably close to a world record.

Small hands will do that on a lot of fish.   ;D ;D  (and other things...  ;))

Nice fish Rod, Mykiss, Shane and Nina looks like a fun trip.

Those remind me of Lakelse coho like this one form 2005:



Shane I am still waiting to hear how your Kootenay trip went  :)
