An angler stands on a sandy beach holding up a freshly caught salmon with both hands, gripping it around the tail wrist and behind the head. The fish is silvery with a slightly darker back and spotting, typical of a fall Chinook. Behind him is a wide stretch of water with a forested far shoreline under a clear blue sky. He wears a plaid shirt, tan waders and a cap, and appears to be fishing from the shore of a large river.
