Wait, wait, wait..... I don't get it here. I caught the darn nookie... Trust me of the couple 1000 fall chinook I've landed in the lewis and couple thousand silvers in the lewis in my time, you can at least trust my word....

IT IS A CHINOOK.. Most of you are used to seeing the typical tule chinook, we have those too. But we have a strain of true native fall chinook in our trib that are all mint bright when they show up, almost like a upriver bright in the columbia....

The only question on that fish is the fact that it is so fresh it's head looks to be a hen. Besides how many 20+ pound silvers have you seen that bright that haven't tossed a few scales between the netting action and being on the bottom of the boat? It is 110% chinookie...

Besides any silvers we have in our system that are over 16lbs then to be bucks and have some bit of a hooked nose....

There's no doubt when Parker says "nookie" it's a nookie...
