Mr.Clean (Pos Super-Salmon) Cruisin through the brush. . . . . .

well not really. Just some leaves and twigs I grabbed a handful of and put on a platform of plywood but ... close enough!

This was one of the first times that he stayed still after I put him down to get pics. Normally he takes off immediately. I think he was still in sleepy mode. He sat nicely for a good 2-4 minutes then suddenly the race was on! He burst off at full speed. I guess he grew weary of my picture taking. Once he takes off like that... hes in kill mode. The woods arent far off and he was quickly heading that way so I had to grab a twig to use as a snake stick and jump in front of him. He can defenitely be fiesty! Hes cool in your hands... once hes on the ground or in a hide WATCH OUT!

Ryan, did he come from Ihle? If so, what was his ID number, I would love to get a sibling. That is what a salmon should look like, I love his pointy head and big eyes!

It was a huge litter of over 40 boas I believe. The whole litter was clean. Some with more color than others. I believe mine was one of the cleaner ones. Mr.Clean is a KK grade.

I almost got a different one. They posted up a new one a few days before I was to ship out new clean and I almost switched. The one I almost got is: 04_ss.37m "K", hes a $1500 K grade that was the orangest of the whole SS litter. Great overall look. Ive already got high orange covered in other salmons so I chose the cleaner of the two, Mr.Clean. SS #37 is on page 3 if youre interested .

Take Care
