27" brown trout, my largest ever. It was the sub-dominant fish in its pool. After this, I hooked the bigger one, but I couldn't land it.

Biography & Thoughts
Fishing has been and always will be my life. I have worked on many charter boats and fishing shops throughout my life. I also am a web and graphic designer, so I have merged my two passions to create my own website and youtube channel for fly fishing.
