Silvers/Coho vs Pinks/Humpys

[mallard83]

Haha yeah i kind of find it funny with what Jake Dogfish says because the fish i thought was a silver is because it had the white mouth and because it jumped a few times while catching it and it ended up being a pink when I looked at the other details of the fish.

But that doesn't sound right,:scratch: it should have been a silver if it fought like a silver. But it ended up being a humpy that doesn't make sense, everything I ever knew in this world is wrong? What's up is down and what's down is up? It had to have been a silver, there is no way to tell it's species by looking at it. You are obviously a rookie like the rest of us, so go fishing don't read a book to learn ever, they rot your brain cells. LOL!!!

Littleriver is semi correct: Yes salmon species will fight like they normally do MOST of the time. But not ALL of the time....

I've had big silvers tear off line going straight down (like Kings normally do) instead of going to the surface like a silver should, and on Thursday I hooked into a big king which fought like a silver, but when brought by the boat, it turned to be a big kind which had to be released to swim another day....
