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.

New here, Northwest Pa. Is my home waters, caught my first Trout on a fly in 1966 and been at it ever since. Made a trip to Alaska last summer and fished the Kenai. Caught my first Dolly and took a float plane out of Skagway and caught my first salmon. My son guided out of Bozeman for a short time so got to fish some in Montana. Will
