Coho spawners

[TJO]

I just caught these guys with my camera coming up a little creek on the Oregon coast a couple days ago. I used my canon 300mm lens without disturbing the fish or getting my feet wet. The light for shooting them was perfect. A friend of mine showed me this place and asked that I do not disclose its location.

There seems to be a lot of native coho this year. Beautiful shots.

TJO- those are freakin fantastic shots, thank you for posting them, really nice to see those bright spawning colors. I put 3 wild coho on my tag last year from my kayak but I also let 3 go off spinners unharmed, habitat improvement is a key part of continuing to strengthen our runs of these great fish...cheers, roger

Wow those are really beautiful pictures. Usually I only see them when pieces of them are falling off.
