Once in a while, you put yourself in the right place, at the right time doing the right thing. Yesterday was one of those days. I spent the day fishing tributaries of lakes that hold landlocked salmon. To make a long story short- this fish took a Shushan Postmaster streamer on the swing. When things came tight, I knew I was into something really good. Seven heart pounding jumps and twenty minutes later, I landed this anomaly.
Notice the hook? Someone hooked and lost this fish
