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.

I'm going to be doing a bit of work on the site -- just back-end stuff that probably won't affect what users see. It's related to the little fiasco we had a couple weeks ago with the site being flat-out messed up.

Basically, I'm having my host copy the site onto new servers (which messes it up), then fixing it there and pointing the "troutnut.com" domain name to the fixed site on the new servers. That means any forum posts that take place in the next few days or so might be lost in the process... so if you were planning to post your greatest manifesto on exactly how to catch all the pickiest trout, you might want to hold off for a bit.

I'll update this again as soon as everything's settled back to normal.
