Salmon in downtown Portland
Well, it's not much of a Salmon, but it made a nice Mother's Day BBQ and I ate it for lunch the rest of the week. This one was 25 1/2" and 6 lb. My buddy who I was with when I caught this one caught a 19+ lb, really bright, nice looking one the week before in the same place. I kinda get a kick out of the buildings in the background - goin' down town to catch fish.
 I hope this works - first time doing the PhotoBucket picture thing. Well, yahoooo it did. Don't you guys get jelous now, seein' me with this this monster fish.

Re: Salmon in downtown Portland
PH - Sorry, I ate it all up. Well, not all that sorry.
S - Yeah, we laughed about that. We were right by the freeway bridge, and a couple of other major highways. Of course, we had to get after it later, but it was nice to be on the river when the other poor guys were on their way to work. RMB - I went with the same guy I caught this with to Alaska a couple of years ago and caught a couple of nice Kings and served them at my son's wedding. They must have been good - when I finally got to the chow line, they were completely gone. If you get a chance to go with your Pop, take it. Blue - No, not a trout, but close relative. This one's probably a jack (came back early), but they grow up in the salt water and come back to spawn. We have a pretty good Spring and Fall fishery (usually), but it's no sure thing that you're gonna catch one when you go out. Here's a pic of the one my buddy caught the week before - about three times the weight of mine and really bright. Look at that s-eatin' grin - I told him he was a swine but the grin just got bigger.
