    With the limited access to Ono, there's no telling what kind of monsters are lurking below.

    That's one fine catch.

    Did he catch it from a boat or dock at Ono?

    I would be interested in a tissue sample from fat kings in that area. I have a theory that kings and other predators smart enough to harvest the species of those areas will not have as high of mercury levels as predators which stay at or beyond the coast--especially with the warmer winters we've had in recent years.

    If my theory is correct, that king (if it returned to that area year after year) might have similar mercury levels to, let's say, a 20# king due to its choice of diet in that location.

    Then again, he might have wandered in there during the recent storm and found treasure food and decided not to leave. Either way, just a hunch.

    Tell your bud congrats on his fish.
