Going to the Puyallup, lots of people are saying they are catching silvers yet when you look at the fish closely, it looks nice and silvery, but it is a pink. Funny when people yell out loud, Silver but it's a pink.
silver has no spots on the tail, darker top, usually bigger, bigger scales and no hump
black tongue if I'm not correct
anyone else add to the difference?

RE:know your fish
The tail spots are not round and the scales are small in comparison to kings and silvers.
RE:know your fish
Pinks also do not have metallic striations on their tail like Kings and Coho do.

RE:know your fish
Coho have white gums and sometimes they do have spots on the upper part of the tail.

pinks have the big worm like spots on their tail.
