Location does mean alot, me and another guide I fish with at a lodge in AK were fishing the bogey a couple years back when I landed a 20lb 4oz silver that I was wanting a high five for,but he wasn't so impressed I told him that this was my first 20+ silver in wa, he said sorry. In AK I've landed many 20lb plus silvers that were all nice fish, but none as nice as that bogey buck, simply because in 17 years of fishing Wa and Or thats the only silver over 20lbs I've ever seen.

It would interesting to find out how many 20lb + fish some of you have landed or seen landed please post year I'm just curious, because for the last 5 or so years the runs have been turning out some slabs.
