I caught a native hen on the Queets (C&R River) a few weeks back. She engulfed the hook so far that I couldn't even see it. I landed her in some real quiet water, almost current free. I proceeded to clip the leader about an inch from her mouth. All the tugging of the fight ripped the hook all through her gut. I held her right side up in the water for something like two minutes and attempted to revive her but she kept turning upside down. I finally let her go and the current slowly took her down stream like a floating log. I couldn't deal with this so I jumped in and took her home for the BBQ. On my way out I was spotted by the ranger. I told him what had happened and he let me get away with it. Lucky me.....
