Yeah, we’ve posted a few ‘nice fish’ pictures lately, but you’ve gotta agree – this one deserves some airtime.
Dave Victor got this dandy of a king salmon at Alaska West this past week. As we usually do, he was swinging flies with his spey rod, and the measurements told us the fish was just over 41 pounds.
A couple of things to note:
- The sea lice.
- The size of the tail.
- A couple of beaming smiles from a couple of normally reserved guys.
Nice fish, Dave.
Totally sic! I was somewhere else on the river that day but heard alot about this fish that evening in camp. Careful ladz, don’t hurt yourselves trying to lift that slab! Ed said it took the two of you to lift it for the pic and he wasn’t kidding. Nice work Dave and another great fish story to share with the gang back in Seattle.
rad!
