Largest silver salmon ever caught in Alaska ★★★★★

Thumbs UP if you like. We drove up to Haines Alaska for a fun filled weekend of fishing and I hooked in to this monster coho salmon!!! I had a crappy tire rod and some 10 pound line. Man was I happy to finally land it!

@tubeyoukyle You do Realize they DIE after they spawn right? That fish would have been dead in a month any way.

Why didn't he use the fish net in the first place?

@Fraser1661 Many fishermen do that when they plan to keep and eat the fish, its a clean quick kill rather than having it stuck on a stringer all day.

@tubeyoukyle People need to lighten up. Sometimes you get to eat what you catch. Hopefully that guy lets some nice fish go as well. Hey vegetarians, there a majority of people on this earth that eat meat. Deal with it!

@MyHeroTimMcllrath so why do you watch youtube-videos like that? to show off your crappy opinion about how every life is so valuable? good for you being a vegetarian. but i want meat! and i want the animal to be dead before i eat it!

@MyHeroTimMcllrath well i only agree on one thing with you. The stone wasnt the right tool. It took him 2 hits what not realy supposed to happen. Still if you dont have the right tool grab a big stone and one strong hit right on the top and holding it in the meantime, its way better than just letting the fish choke till hes dead? It looks like you are ignorant like the most people.

Nice fishing, still next time have the right tool
