Coho - right?
« on: October 20, 2021, 05:04:52 PM »

   Still new to salmon fishing, and want to make sure that these are in fact wild coho (the tongue is black, lips are white) I am catching here in the tri-cities over the past ten or so days. :)                                                            So the pic is not working/uploading. A link to the picture instead: https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=10159915825513792&set=a.10153290084613792

yes I think it is a pink... a bit colored. shows how  challenging fish id can be just going on the common 'distinguishing' attributes.

I used the large my friend oval spots on the tail. Of course in that picture I can’t see it
