My friend and I were trout fishing yesterday and he caught this pink salmon lol. We also caught a few trout and saw some bigger trout, but they didn’t want anything to do with us. Also saw a decomposing pink salmon.

That’s so awesome! That’s an oregon catch of a lifetime, I’ve always wanted to catch a pink to mark it off of my list!

Maybe this one is a female I heard the males are the ones with those big humps.

Nice fish! I’ve seen or caught pinks in 3 different coastal streams and it seems like there have been more the last several years. It’s pretty odd. They’re fun fish, super aggressive!
