Nice salmon! I guess they were cooperating. Nice fish! I got out Saturday and managed to get one decent brown on the ice before the rain.

 Congratulations again...   Hope you and family have a Merry Christmas....

Hard to tell the difference sometimes on those nice salmon. But the mouth is always the giveaway. A browns mouth will end just past the eye, salmon will end right at it.

Did some research because of my limited understanding of landlocked salmon, and said to myself these fish look very much like big brown trout.  These pictures are from the one and only species of landlocked Atlantic Salmon called Salmo salar.  There are also 4 Pacific species of salmon found in NY waters but only one Atlantic.  This I found interesting, perhaps to others as well....

Great fish Mike!  Must have been a handful on tipups. The ones in Otsego years back were real fighters and tough to get in on handlines. Not as big as those, though!
 Way to go!
