The giant Salmonflies of the Western mountains are legendary for their proclivity to elicit consistent dry-fly action and ferocious strikes.

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
1. Don't fish for food its cheaper to go to the grocery store than it is to buy all the gear you will need to fish.
2. If you keep fish, eat them don't let them get freezer burn!
3. Support the businesses who are willing to teach you and answer your questions, don't buy gear from someone who has "it" in stock but is not willing to give you the time of day.

I deal with this every day it drives me crazy! Hope you agree!
