This sounds like a bad joke or no clue, Snoqualmie Chinook are ESA listed, leave em alone or I' ll enjoy the report in the paper.

He's hooked on something alright- CRACK!

Can you give us the exact location where these fish are stacked up? My buddy (Officer Friendly) would like to see you guys rip some lips (or fins- either or is fine) Speaking of fine... $$$$$ CHA-CHING

Yup! I lost one about 62½ pounds on the Snohomish last year. Only had it on for a couple of seconds so I couldn't get a more accurate weight estimate.

It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck.

Hey plunk, I think I hooked the same fish too. I wasn't going to say anything, cause I mean who'd believe me. But, I could tell he was 62 and a 1/2 lbs. by the way he shook his head before he spit the barbless #12 aberdeen hook I was using. Just as well though because I was only using 2 lb. test line. Mighta had him though if I'd been using my noodle rod instead of my pocket-fisherman. Hey what the heck, better luck next time, huh. Think I'll head on down and get me one of them 70 #ers I hear there's pinks in the river.
