First cohos of the year.  Had 3 on today with a few more that bit the spoon but missed the hook. Landed 2 out of 3.  All the action occurred within 30 minutes starting at about 2:45pm. No action for the rest of the day.  I started at noon.  This wild one (Approx 22") was released and I retained a 21" hatchery one.  All on croc spoons.

good for you man, has any caught a non runt this year. i have hooked a few and the have all been small.

[samw]

The first one I had on was a male that did about 5 somersaults before losing the hook.  It looked about 8lbs.  Then one guy downstream snagged one accidentally in the middle of the river while float fishing which appeared to be 10+ lbs.  It's length was about the length of a small chum.

Haven't seen anything bigger than 4 in 3 weeks of fishing between 6 anglers. 
samw must be at the right place at the right time. Good on you!

here's another small jack from today:

Out of the 20 or so coho I've hooked so far, there has not been one over 6 pounds and I have only seen one push over 8 that was caught. Lots and lots of jacks so far too.

Nice fish Big Snag.  But that's not a jack.  It's a small adult buck.  I'm with BCfisherman 97.  I've hooked a similar number of coho so far, and all have been small with the largest (only one fish) pushing 5 - 6 pounds.  Most have been in the 3 - 4 pound range, and I've noticed lots of small bucks that seem like large jacks.

Thanks FFM, but it is a jack. A "northern" jack LOL

This past weekend I landed and retained a larger one of around 7-8lbs every other coho I've seen were those little guys. I should have taken a picture as the bigger ones this year seem to be unicorns
