Not the largest fish (I'm sure) but last fall a fellow on the lower Rogue landed a 71.5 # fall king on a fly rod .... and 7# leader!!!

He was fishing for summer runs and hooked something a tad larger than expected. Fellow down stream from him (both were in prams) netted the fish as it came up and rolled on the surface.

However it got in the boat, that's a lot of fish!
