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

This is the first of it's family I've seen, collected from a tiny, fishless stream in the Cascades. The three species of this genus all live in the Northwest and are predators that primarily eat stonefly nymphs Merritt R.W., Cummins, K.W., and Berg, M.B. (2019).
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.

I was wondering if it's alright to sale fly fishing gear on this site? I have a Pflueger summit fly rod 7wt, 8'6" with a case, I'm looking to sale it..

Well don't you think you should of bounced that off the site owner, Jason, before posting the thread? His email is located at the very bottom of this page. There are numerous other FF sites that have swap boards. One of them I recently used and sold two rods, three reels, all sorts of fly boxes, and other stuff.
