Release.
This is a special salmon. Not because it was the biggest, gnarliest beast in the river, but because it was my first.
Well… it ain’t a salmon 😅
Fly fishing makes it so easy to just let go and get lost in the moment.
Shortly after the hook set I knew this fish wasn’t a salmon. The typical hit, pause, line screaming, down-to-the-backing initial fight didn’t happen.
It was very obvious when I first stepped in the Salmon River that I was a trout fisherman. Casting at the banks, delicately setting hooks, trying to finesse the fish in.
