Never officially had one down here but have had clients release several that were over 50 in both the Nooch and Halis. Biggest one that got away and we would have been able to keep was a Spring/Summer in the Halis 7 years back that was pushing 55. Darn thing wrapped up in the leader and broke off when he started jumping like crazy! Monster fish for sure. The same day we boated and bonked a 37...Also lost a fall fish a few years back in the Halis that me and the client both believe was over 60. Cool to still see a few like that around. Biggest keeper I've personally landed was on the Kenai where I've had 3 over 50. Biggest keeper for a client down here was 41 and Chrome in the Cow last year, the pics below . My biggest personal fish here in WA was pushing 35 out in the Salt with my late friend Steve Miller on his charter boat Freedom back in the early 90s.
