Largest Legal Halis of the season?

[EstevanPoint]

Hey forum,
Just wanted to throw out the question and see how big people have managed to legally retain? The largest I have heard of this year is a 61lbs @ 125cm from Langara Island.

a cousin of mine just caught a 52lb that was 1.5cm below the size limit.... this was up in rupert near dundas

We caught a 78 lb fish, but that was back in March before the slot size.
It was legal

Ahhhh, R.S Craven has me beat by 2lbs. I had a 76 back in March. But r.s craven, what about the rule "if there's no picture it didn't happen".

The guys at Sunds had a legal 68.
It's on their blog.

got this one at exactly 126cm after wrestling two that were 8-10" over note tape hanging of fish

bc tough boys got one in at 67lbs,, 0ne cm under..


seems to be a big difference in weight vs length, i have had a couple overs that were not very thick, looked like 55lbs... then a big thick one 62lbs and 8cm under...

sad thing is if your rich and have quota you can legally retain a 300 #er if you want.... wonder if anyone will have the fortitude to come out and say what they caught using quota.... lol (oops, now where did I put that tinfoil hat of mine...)

a good buddy up hardy way has had two 125cm fish @ 55 lbs the last 2 days. Released a 90 as well.

Had a legal 68 this year. Well 126.5cm but 0.5cm off kinda hard to tell in water. Close enough lol

I took some friends from England out this morning and they were very happy to land a 60lb measuring in at 125 mouth closed 126 mouth open. Slightly disfigured from the beating he took.LOL. Fish and chips aplenty.
