That might be the year this one was hatched.

Apples and chestnuts. The Oregon record is an anadromous fish. This is a fully landlocked fish. Pretty amazing.

I'm amused how few people realize that a picture of a carcass never looks as good as a picture of a living creature. I'm not even talking about C&R, even if you keep a fish, take a pic while it is still alive.

Good luck long arming a 65 pound fish....:flex:
