Correct, its a king. That fish was a freak. They caught it pulling plugs in the clearwater river. It had to be lost is the best guess. So then the FISHING AND HUNTING news runs a article about it being a potential world record steelhead??? Those guys have have their heads in their ass. So they go on to describe all the things that made them pretty sure it was a steelhead.

Kinda like the story you hear every year about a guy who shot a moose and claimed it was an elk.. or a horse or a cow or whatever.
