Just curious. How can you tell a marbled spring from white or red spring without bonking them?

There are lots of springs in the Vedder, but what's alarming to me is the lack of coho.  I've heard of a few but by now I usually have had a handful to hand.  I don't want to hit the panic button as it isn't October yet, but I really hope more coho show up.  With all of these springs hanging around, it will make the coho fishing even more difficult.  We'll soon see...

Out of curiosity, what's the cause of the marble flesh?

A mix of diet and genetics i believe.

Was recently shown on a trip out in the chuck to check the inside rim/edge of gills where as the reds did have a much more distinctive red coloring to the edges whereas the whites were more white......Family member called all 5 springs that we kept with 3 reds and 2 whites using this method....I am curious if other have found this to be true at all as well? Something I will definitely be checking for in future to see further.

Brought another coho doe and a spring jack to hand this morning on the lower. There really isn't a lack of coho, but it is very important that you are targeting the right water.

got a nice chinook today. Had one on that was 40+lbs and it was jumping like crazy. I fought it for a good 15 minutes then it decided to go in the fast water and that ended up straightening my hook and popping out.
