In a year where big Chinook seem to be back, even if in fewer numbers, Fish Tales Fishing Club members Tony Dyrkacz and Bob Elliott doubled up on two 25-pound-plus kings earlier this year in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin.

FOTW, the celebration of big fish and their stories around Chicago fishing, runs Wednesdays on the Sun-Times’ outdoors page. Submit nominations on Facebook (Dale Bowman), on Twitter (@BowmanOutside) or email (straycasts@sbcglobal.net).
