Sellwood Springer Report (pic)

Hit it today with El-Kabong and my dorky little brother.

Wouldn't you know it, the bro showed us how it was done.

First this keeper:

Then the smooth release of this partial clipped fish

Didn't see much else caught. PM me if you need to speak to my attorney

Redbull · 02-25-2005, 02:12 PM

Wing Locked · 02-25-2005, 02:12 PM

JEALOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nothing better then February Sun and February Springers!!!

SKP · 02-25-2005, 02:16 PM

Now there is a believable report! Great job!

SKP :grin:

PATRICK 11-14 · 02-25-2005, 02:16 PM

Can't make out the date on that paper

Nice work there punk.....well guess he showed who the punk is

Seems to me that when you bring a kid along, newbie, greenhorn what-ever they also put the so call fisherman/woman in their place!!

Nice work there kid...wanna show me how to do it this weekend?????

Boat Monkey · 02-25-2005, 02:18 PM

No, I don't think so

I don't see a letter from a dead relative notorized by Elvis. Nice feesh!

Mark Vickers · 02-25-2005, 02:20 PM

Most likely faked that one... I can't read the date on the newspaper nor the numbers on the ID. Plus, you don't have a photo of your marked tag.

All this deception is starting to wear me down.

Killertraylor · 02-25-2005, 02:25 PM

It's for real. Under super magnification I can make out my face and dark blue shirt that I'm wearing today in one of the office buildings in the background....

Congratulations! What was wrong with the misclip - not "misclipped" enough to keep?

garyk · 02-25-2005, 02:25 PM

Victory brews for you Sat night

FROGGY · 02-25-2005, 02:27 PM

Looks like a cut and paste job to me. He is wearing a sweatshirt and stocking hat on a warm day on the river.

Nice fish, boy am I getting anxious

wootersen · 02-25-2005, 02:28 PM

Nicely Done !!!

JasonsZ06 · 02-25-2005, 02:34 PM

It was my understanding that you can keep a partially clipped fish, as long as it's obvious. Am I wrong?

Firedog · 02-25-2005, 02:35 PM

Nookie Chaser · 02-25-2005, 02:37 PM

Here I sit at work and you have to post that :smile:

rjs · 02-25-2005, 02:40 PM

hmmmmmmmmm. Based on above thread, it seems so far my principal contribution to ifish has been genetic rather than fish-catching wisdom. But once I get my new old boat in the water I hope to change that. Way to go Darian and Darv !!!!

Smily · 02-25-2005, 02:40 PM

Way to go on the beautiful fish.

O Tshawytcha · 02-25-2005, 02:40 PM

Looks like a rubber fish to me!

GRIFF

Rubber Robin · 02-25-2005, 02:45 PM

I also believe that you can keep a partially clipped fish.
I would hate to think that I released a "keeper."

Ouch!

Congrats on a great outing anyway!!!!!!

slabhunter · 02-25-2005, 02:46 PM

Nice report!

Dad that thing will be a fish catcher here very shortly

The fish we released had enough adipose left to make me pretty nervous. We all looked and agreed that we were better safe than sorry. There WILL be others!

FrogPond · 02-25-2005, 02:50 PM

This is to funny! I am glad people have relaxed a little and are back to having some fun!

BTW I saw that fish in Safeway this morning...you're not fooling anyone!

ibgrizz · 02-25-2005, 02:57 PM

You suck!!! real nice fish

slabhunter · 02-25-2005, 03:06 PM

Riverkeeper,
Wow, I was just kidding in the other thread about the daily paper.

Way to go! Sharing the fish with family.

hookem · 02-25-2005, 03:16 PM

nice try bubby, that newspaper looks like one I saw about a year ago. we need the date!

5-Cents · 02-25-2005, 03:44 PM

CHROMAGE

Hey wait a minute that news paper looks edited in when I magnify 1000X!

Plum Crazy · 02-25-2005, 03:46 PM

Nice!!!!
Just tell yourself- "It was a Native, It was a Native" over and over :grin: I hate those 1/2 fins.
See ya

Jsail · 02-25-2005, 03:54 PM

Yea right....

I don't see a cloud in the sky, the river looks to be fairly clear, no other boats....

CATCH AND EAT · 02-25-2005, 03:54 PM

I still don't believe it.

Way to go man, I am jealous for sure. Nice chrome fish, proper ID, todays paper, good photos, and best of all it was your brother.

Thanks for sharing and putting the spank on two nice fish today. KUDOS

Tulelicious · 02-25-2005, 04:14 PM

Do you plan on catching a fish every weekend just to make me Jealous???

Nice Job

StinkyH · 02-25-2005, 04:18 PM

I have compared this to my morning copy of the Oregonian.

*** Oregonian verification PASSED ***

Nice fish!

Hope to get me one of them in the next few weeks.

h20dog · 02-25-2005, 04:19 PM

Now THAT'S funny!!!!

Nice job on the fish, but better job on the post. Made my day.

Jacks or Better · 02-25-2005, 04:32 PM

The "proof" standard has been set. Current paper, photo ID and a fresh looking fish. Hope I don't forget the paper. Nice fish.

Fshklr · 02-25-2005, 04:46 PM

Way to go Punk a$$ little brother

spinnerbob · 02-25-2005, 05:05 PM
