Yeah, or a Sockeye I guess.....  :-[  Sockeye didn't even enter my head considering it is October and there are plenty of Chum in the river.  I hadn't seen that thread....To me that just looked like a pic of someones nice chrome chum that got it's eye ripped out whilst the person was fishing.   :-\

Nope it was a sock.... just a reminder to CHECK your catch before you kill it. I have seen SEVEN of these of the beach, missing eyes this year (between mid september, and even one today). This was more just a gentle reminder that they look a lot like coho, a lot of people see that back fin missing and bonk it the moment they get it on the beach.

Rodney you ruined the test  ;D

BTW- this fish caught by a friend of mine is the current derby leader at Fred's at over 16lb bled.

really crying now that only the derby fish is 16lbs. got one around 2 weeks ago than was over 20lbs gutted. Should have entered :(

I was at the Vedder today and I saw a brute taken today weighed 18 lbs on a digital scale was a beauty and a bar of chrome to boot. :o

I also saw the smallest coho taken from the same run today was all of 12-13 inches. :)

Holly crap!!!  Coho Cody that is a huge fish!!!.  Got to be loads of fun playing it on the pin!!!  Does it fight like a regular coho or more like spring??

Btw it's not 20.1 lb, it's a mere 9.12kg fish !!!   ;D ;D

I agree it doesnt look 20 gutted so 22ish lbs before gutted. Still a pig for sure and over 16lbs prob. These fish we seined look bigger would say 18? The guy we seined with said they have had a spawned out ho that was 29 lbs so for sure over 30 in the chuck. Imagine hookin up with that!
