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.

You were, but I interceded with Jason and he agreed to finally give you access again. But no more hijinks from you and Jack!

Thank you Louis, I’m going to have a little sit-down with Jack tonight and we’re going to pour over our past transgressions. However, I don’t think Jack will take too kindly to being told to put a lid on it.

And Spence was banned for being a tattle-tale. Don't know what I was banned for. I've been resisting the temptation to write haiku out of season.
