I was able to bonk a little clean(er) pink doe tonight. She's in the brine and the roe is in the pro-cure.

Are you talking about the adipose fin? They don't clip the springs on the Vedder.

I think he's suggesting its a coho due to the lack of spots on the lower tail and 'whitish' looking gums. Hard to be 100% sure from that photo though.

edit: The spots on the back do indeed look very 'spring-like' to me though I've personally never seen a spring with such a the complete lack of spots on the tail. Oh well, I wasnt there so not going to second-guess *shrug*

Need a shot of the gums. From that pic they do look very light coloured.

Not true!  Some Chinooks are clipped - I've caught them myself as indicated in the photo below.

Spring for sure. Zoom in and you can see the black gums.
