Just wanted to share a picture and video of my first atlantic salmon from tonight! It was a great hookup on a simple egg fly, with an awesome fight full of jumps! I was out with my buddy from the forum Swany93 on a Lake O trib. What an amazing fish. Quick picture and then revived and released. Enjoy the season guys! 

Heres the video:

Beauty of a specimen! The fins on that thing are huge too, doesn't look like a stocked fish.
