Cowlitz fish

[jb]

Fished the cowlitz on Monday and hooked quite a few but only managed to get a couple in the boat. One of the fish was a beautiful 15lb fish. It had a hole punch in the gill plate. I have not seen that on any of the other fish I have caught on the cowlitz. Is this fish from somewhere else or is it a cowlitz fish. The fish was caught up above Toledo. jb

I believe that's what they call a recycled fish, one that was trucked back down fromt he hatchery and released to be caught again. Could be wrong though.
