No picture, was released instantly. Unfortunately, not enough water to spin and fly ain't happening anywhere on this river. Worm it was, 2'6" link to the 1oz lead, 18" link to the size 8 hook (keeps the two dendrobaena worms wiggling off the bottom in the current) bounced ever so gently into a known salmon lie. It's crystal clear, so 12lb fluorocarbon mainline and 8lb hooklink and one of my old faithful barbel rods that dealt with the 29 pound carp a couple of months back.
