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.

Troutnut is a project started in 2003 by salmonid ecologist Jason "Troutnut" Neuswanger to help anglers and fly tyers unabashedly embrace the entomological side of the sport. Learn more about Troutnut or support the project for an enhanced experience here.

Hey guys. The Leon Chandler Chapter of Trout Unlimited is sponsoring Ithaca Fishing Day. It's an event where people can come learn about fishing (more geared toward fly fishing), get advice on local fishing opportunities, and purchase gear from some local vendors. I'll be checking back here every so often if there are any questions. Thanks a lot!

Chris.
