is this a king or a landlocked salmon?


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

this pic just came up on my screen saver and it doesn't look like the other King pics i have (compare it to the second photo). It doesn't really look like a landlocked to me, but it also looks different than a lot of the kings i've caught.

 

thanks for your input,

dre

X3 king. Atlantics have a white mouth while kings have a black mouth, and from the pics it looks like both fish have a black mouth. Quick goolge search and found this site with some nice tables  summarizing the distinguishing characteristics of different salmoniods.
