Salmo - Have you eaten/compared to Sol Duc hatchery springers? I think it originated as a man-made run from in-basin stock? At this point they look different than the summer-runs and very different from the fall fish. The springers on the lower SD are some of the chromest salmon I've seen, like mirrors.Columbia River spring Chinook is the very best salmon I have ever eaten. Period. If there is better salmon out there, I don't know about it.
This one was pretty damn tasty!
