Not too shabby. I especially liked the grayling. Thanks.

I agree with Lewis on the Grayling. Where was it caught? I caught my first one ever in Montana this past summer, but it was a dink.

Nice looking fish - looks like some cohos/silvers so I'm pretty sure you caught most of those fish in Alaska. Neat to see the Plueger Medalist. The 1492 was my very first fly reel back around 1961.

Neal,
Where in Maryland are you from? My mom was born near Hutton just outside of Oakland. Garret Co. Caught my biggest ever Bluegill in Deep Creek Lake.
