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
Recently moved to La Crosse from Michigan's Upper Penninsula. I guess that makes me a displaced Yooper, but none the less I am planning on moving back to Michigan in a couple years. I need to take advantage of the wonderful fishery in the area while I can, not to mention the excellent whitetail hunting.
