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 don't know exactly where this was but there was a parking lot, with bronze plaques of Marinaro & Fox, on the side of the creek towards my tip top.

Once upon a time I decided to go look at the Letort and figured I'd need a picture to remember my failure. I went in early July, early in the morning for Tricos, and saw one rise in three hours. Guess I was in the wrong place, or maybe the wrong day, or year, or as the guy said "ya shoulda been here yesterday."
