The Kenai has the biggest kings in the world (and was the source of the 97# world record). One year, I caught a 45 pounder and a 60 pounder on the Saturday and Sunday of a weekend in early July and that filled my limit for that year (you can only keep 2 Kings out of the Kenai per year, unless it's changed).
Good god, a sixty pounder! That's Yooge!

I have Polaroids, but that would take scanning, etc. and I'm too lazy. I sure was young and pretty back then though (it was 30 years ago).

Same here, I had my fishing buddy shoot a Polaroid of me with that baby 12 pounder I caught not five miles from here in SoCal. Nobody wants to believe that Blackmouths make it this far south but they do, rarely.
