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.

A real brute for the PA creeks. 28" long and it put me into the backing in ten seconds and took me down river 150 yards from where I hooked this gorgeous hen.

This is a 27" fish caught about an hour after the 28" hog.

$Today all my fish were hooked on a #16 Pheasant Tail with a woven Mylar wing case. It is very exciting to see the indicator just twitch a fraction and you lift the rod tip and 6 - 8 pounds of silver muscle erupts from the creek and comes down with a huge crash.$
