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.

Just a few more browns I've captured lately. Both from the same day in late March. As I recall, they were both taken on #20 Zebra Midges (Red). The nymphing has become quite spotty lately, and slowed down a lot. Just a matter of time until the Pheasant Tails come on again...

No matter how big the one you just caught is, there's always a bigger one out there somewhere...
