Snagging Chinook Salmon with a Fly Rod

Way to go, Scott!

Scott Billingsley tried using a fly rod to snag salmon on Fort Peck.

This is what he told montanaoutdoor.com:

“#1 treble and a tinsel insert.  It’s pretty fun ‘hunting’ them down.  Very spooky!!!”

Congratulations, Scott, and thanks for sharing!
