The reason I asked was that yesterday after fishing there was a note on my truck. It said that he had a friiend that caught a 55 pounder also. Thought it might be the same fish.
My fish weighed 60 pounds, five ounces on Johnnys Seafood markets scale.
Had the same look as yours does, a beautiful, and most likely biggest of my life. It now adorns the wall in my rec room.
I don't get to Ilwaco much, just too far for a one dayer. But I have friends that take their vacations on certain days in August.
