Caught a nice female Chinook Salmon this morning on Sandy Creek on the West side of Rochester, NY in Monroe County. I was using a 5 weight Winston Boron IIx fly rod with a 6 lb. leader and tippet fishing with a pink imitation single egg fly. The fish took the fly on the second drift then proceeded upstream for about 50 yards and then acted like a log for about 15 minutes. My friend Bret helped me land her because we didn’t bring a net. Next time… a big net! After the photo op, I let her go.
