Milton Franson, of Liverpool, holds up a nice landlocked salmon.

He wrote: "You probably don't remember me from the Sportsman Days 9/28 when I introduced myself and promised you a pic of a "nice fish" (as soon as I caught one).

"Well, here HE is. A nicely colored (we thought it was a brown at first sight) male landlocked salmon, 20" caught on my antique Tonkin cane fly rod, fished from shore at Eaton Lake, Adirondacks.

"I lifted the fish out of the water quickly, got foto and put fish back in water quickly. It flipped its tail after a couple minutes rest and zipped away."

Nice catch, Milton and thanks for sharing!
