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.

My nephew has started getting some interest in trout fishing and I told him to go to this site and start reading. Problem is that he has a virus and his computer is quite old, and pretty much a goner. He doesn't get online that much. Anyone been shopping for a new computer or know much about computers, personally I don't know jack. Any help would be appreciated.
