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.

Hi, TU just sent me an email asking for support for better flow releases to help protect the fish during warm weather. The URL for their "take action" page is

http://takeaction.tu.org/c.ntJSJ8MPIqE/b.6070811/k.810D/Tell_DRBC_to_Implement_Biologists_Recommendations_for_Upper_Delaware_River_Flow/siteapps/advocacy/ActionItem.aspx?tr=y&auid=6430278

Please see if you can access the page and add your name to help this amazing river system, its fish, and its anglers.
