Stingy,
I said I wouldnt get dragged into a debate about these fish.......but thanks to you I have no choice
What do you need from me to prove that they're both salmon......what kind of proof could I provide
you....to aid you in your investigation?
I still have the subjects in question in lockup... in my freezer.......would you like me to have them transported to your precinct for profileling.... Mr. CSI? or should I address you as Inspector Clueso?
Then you can count all the rays on the fins and check their dental records
One more little piece of evidence.......there are absolutely NO spots on either of the suspects tails
YOUR CALL couseler Let me know how to procede with this case.........I'd rather this be settled out of court and not waste the
taxpayers time and money
To tell you the truth.....I'm appalled at your overly opinionated accusations all based from a photo.
All you guys that THINK the top fish is a rainbow are off your ROCKER! and I'm not even going to get into that
discussion with you period! I've been fishing these lakes for over 30 years and if you THINK I cant tell the diff.
between a l.l.s from a rainbow or from a brown for that matter.......like I said , your off your ROCKER.
For me there is no mis identifying between species.....If you want to believe the one fish in the pic is a rainbow, based
on a photograph only.....you go right ahead....BELIEVE.
The only reason I posted the pic and answered this post.....was cause of concerns of tiogaguy.....which just
so happenings IRONICLY..... was the case of one of the two LANDLOCKE SALMON (concerning loose eggs) shown in the pic. The salmon wasnt loaded with eggs....it had about a quarter of the amount that it should have. It may have spawned but didnt dump them all..and yes its really strange to find loose eggs in a l.l.s. this time of year.....which I guess brings me back to the original post. So keep me out of the debate and still amazes me how often people mis identify between l.l.s. salmon and trout.
Less than a cup of eggs came outta her
ray I know its weird to find whole fully matured loose eggs in l.l.s. in Feb.
Got some beautiful eggs out of her......cured them light up too........they're
like gold to a stream fisherman.
The one holdover was plenty silver and all , she had her color back......but the fins were darker and a little
beat up (rounded corners) and the fillets were of poor quality like a salmon thats been
thru the rigors of spawning.
The other one in great shape fat and healthy.
spawner is on top
Kept two a couple weeks ago....one was a spawner......loose eggs......kept them and cured them....the one very small skein (this years eggs)
both silver fish........nothing in either of their stomachs
I work in the engineering dept. of a local company....I have access to two CNC router machines.
Pretty much whatever I can draw on CAD I can cut on the machines. The only material I cant machine
is metal.....we usually sub that out.
This project....would be perfect for the cnc's.....just have to mic-out a dipsey/lay'em out and rout'em out.
Now I just got to find the time and not get caught
Thanks Bill,
for the pic......I'm gonna make some. I can write a program that will cut these holders out on a computerized router.
I'm going to make some out of plastic......I'll send ya pic Nice job! and great idea! Thankyou
pic #1.......pirate spoon , pro king , g-finsh (maybe northport nailer , or southport slammer?) , ? , NK , ?
Looks like all the rest in pic 2 and 3 are possibly NK's .....from what I can see.
Thats NOT EXACTLY how things went.....but funny story none the less.
You're talented in many ways Capn.
You forgot to mention what you caught this morning
While ray was showing me some of his "HOT" lures he put one in his thumb
i'm looking for a canoe........one of the moderators said you have like 8 of them.
Wanna sell any?
I tought I had already asked but my reply seems to have dissapeared...bob?
