Here are a couple slobs I have hauled in over the years.

42lb King

12lb Brown out of one of the finger lakes (my secret spot in the fall)

Thanks, it was caught in SE alaska. I thought you fellas might like to see what they look like when they come fresh out of the salt. I didn't think it was that big until it saw the dock and just about spooled me. It ran out under our netpens and I was worried it would get grabbed by a seal or get hung up in our nets.

I caught him at low tide throwing an NK28 off our dock. It was the first fish of the year (caught mid may) and was also the biggest caught by any of the hatchery workers. It tasted pretty good too. That was the only fish caught on a spoon that year. Most guys up there don't know jack about fishing spoons, they fish all flashers with either cut bait or hootchies/flies.
