[RiverChromeGS]

Me? Lol that's doubtful!!! We got one and thought it was 20 but it was only 16 I hate that ha

Thats why i guess low as possible. Avoid dissapointment lolol. Urs on cow too?

[RiverChromeGS]

9-10lb steelhead, springer is easy twice as big, longer and of course way thicker

[Brian253]

Ff, u know better than to ask where! Notellum, of course. Nice pair you got there kid

[RiverChromeGS]

ohh thats right. Lol. Thanks tho

[Mr. Irwin]

Weighed 18.9 after being bled out. I have a pic of it next to a 9 lb steelhead. The pic doesnt do it justice.Although i dont need to prove anything to you since ive probably caught more fish in the last month than youve even seen in your entire life

I have seen just about every post of yours here for months now, and that is a pretty regular thing you do.
You catch a nice 10lb native buck, lift out of water, take your pic, and then say its 13lbs.
There should be no reason for you to do this, you seem to have no problem getting them on your hook.
And LOL at someone saying im trying to "call you out"
if you can't listen to what i have to say without taking it personal that is your problem.
Good luck to you out there and tight lines.
Just keep it honest, eh? (and natives in the water)

First Off, the native steelhead im holding out of the water are in British Columbia in the Vedder river. 100% legal to hold them out of the water. Seconldy, you an say whatever you want about the size of my fish but not only was that springer 18.9lbs on my 50$ digital scale, but every other hatchery fish ive killed i weigh on it as well. AS for the natives, sure i could be off a pound or 2, but if your first post on this website is gonna be trying to call me out on the weigh of a fish than its obvious that ur just jealous. Like you could know how big my fish were from a pic anyway.

Whoa! Calm down boys. Pictures can be deceiving. If anything Freaks estimates on fish are on the low end of the spectrum. His camera has a very wide angle lens on it that makes everything smaller, even when long arming it.

Let's just focus on finding the springers and smoking up some chinook! We all know what rivers they show up in! Let's go get 'em. I've been working on remembering to bring my camera and snap pics for you guys, so I'll have some in a bit if I can just remember.

[racfish]

Im with you Nate. I so seldom take my camera fishing. I applaud Freak for his fishing tenacity. Ive fished in Canada for years and their laws are different from ours. Their fisheries are far superior to ours. When I was at WWSC I fished the Vedder frequently. Keep fishing You Freak and keep those pics comming.

[RiverChromeGS]

You know i will! Yea Nate would love to start seeing pics of your skookumchuck hawgs!!!

[natetreat]

I know right? My problem is my camera is too darn expensive to use in wet conditions. I need to save up and get one like yours.

[RiverChromeGS]

Yea i hear ya. My camera always gets wet when im doin that stuff. And its raining 95% of the time around here. If u have video tho u can set it down on a rock facing u and hold ur fish up too it then snap a stillshot of video on ur comp that how i do it
