Lower gumline looks black to me = Chinook!

I'm not sold.  I get a lot of Coho that have black mouths but a thin line of white at the base of the teeth.  The scale slough and green back scream coho. 

Brian!?

I hear ya.

Hard to count on that green color as the photo is obviously overexposed in some bright sunlight.  And "scale slough" is common for the little guys, whether they are chinook or coho.
