Thanks, we were happy to get them. Not real big and far from a record, but bigger and better than the other salmon we were catching. We even caught 2 white kings this summer. Wife is holding one in the pic. You don't know that they are white kings until you clean them. They have pale ivory meat and taste good, more buttery. We don't get many kings, so we were happy.--Ed

I zoomed in on those fish and could not find a tag that said: Joe's Fish Market, so congrats!

We were careful this time. Put the tags away from the camera.
