In runaway fashion, Salmonzilla has been voted by you the people as the 2008 Smoker of the Year Champion! It wasn’t even close…Salmonzilla received 70.4 percent of the vote, easily kicking his two rivals (who each earned 14.8 percent of the vote) to the curb.
Thanks to Department of Fish & Game biologist Doug Killam for actually picking this big guy up for a photo and also to biologist Matt Johnson, who originally broke the story to us.
We’ll be announcing the details of our 2009 Smoker of the Year Contest in the upcoming weeks, so keep taking pictures of those dark nasty fish you’re catching out there. You know the ones…
Until then, let’s give a big round of applause to our 2008 Smoker of the Year Champ!

gag!!!!
A beast indeed! If a Smoker of the Year has been eaten, nobody’s talking…
That thing was a beast!
Has any entry ever been really smoked and eaten?
While Salmonzilla is a worthy champion, let’s keep our collective fingers crossed that next year’s winner is actually caught by an angler!
