In general, I DON'T FISH CHINOOK.....I get asked to fish Buoy 10, Willapa, GH.....just lost the interest to fish "big fish".

Now that's not to say I've never been a big fish chaser. Humptulips, late 80's caught one that weighted 49 when I got it home after 8 hours and one in the Chehalis that "local" had to help me net.....it was BIG, I didn't want so "local" said he take....but changed his mind and released.

There area few big fish, left but......not like the days past.
