Tuna Man, the locals call all Chinooks that are not upriver brights (chromers), Tules, which leaves all the Chinook spawning in tributaries from Bonneville downstream. Since this is quite a range, these will vary from nice fish showing just a hint of sexual maturity to some downright boots. I saw both last weekend.

One thing to keep in mind when deciding to keep or release Tules, is sex. The females put so much into egg production that their flesh is softer lower in protien than males that are just as far along.
