Caught my first Chinook Salmon vid

Yup, I thought it was snagged at first because I was drifting near a ledge.
As you can see I walked over to try and pop it out. I actually got scared when the chinook started to splash.
I think its cool that I caught it on video. Its a lot better then telling someone the story on how I caught my first.

I was using a 8'6" uglystick with a mitchell 4000 reel. I bought this as a beginner setup for pier and river fishing.
I also bought a used Okuma Aventa centerpin and a 13' rod but I havent caught anything on it yet. Im still learning on how to use it.
