robert Posted June 19, 2011 Posted June 19, 2011 then lost it. Fought it for a few minutes, then figured I could muscle him to shore - figure again LOL. Seen him at the surface, nice fish. Then I caught this sucker... My hands aren't the size of meathooks but I thought for sure he was going to break me off... Had a few more hookups but couldn't seem to keep them on. Quote
danhunt Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 Look at the shoulders on that thing! Nice fish... Quote
FraserN Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 That fish is huge! Too bad it wasn't the Brown. You'll land a brown soon: the river is full of them. Quote

CopperJonny Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 Wow ! Thats One Big Sucka'! I wonder what strain of Porpoise that thing is mixed with !! Quote
CrookedHooker Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 I have pulled a number of thoes out of the river this year, they are big but ugly as sin Quote
robert Posted June 27, 2011 Author Posted June 27, 2011 Well, finally landed my first brown, taped in at 20", lovin' it. Beautiful evening, good company, good fishing - beats the heck out of work any day!! Quote
SteveM Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 Beautiful coloration on that trout, Robert; worth the wait, I'll bet! Quote
robert Posted June 27, 2011 Author Posted June 27, 2011 Definitely worth the wait, very nice coloring on the fish... Didn't run at all, just had a heck of a time getting it off the bottom. Got it back in the water facing upstream and it just swam off slowly but strong. The bull is the next on the list Quote
Flyfishen Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 Nice Brown Robert. Now it's time for a Bull you say...well, your in the right place if you're in K-country. Bring your 7 weight out for the big 30+ inchers and hang on!!! Quote

robert Posted June 30, 2011 Author Posted June 30, 2011 First double I think I've participated in this year !! YeeeHaw ! Good job Rob!! ( sorry for the finger in the upper right hand corner) It was pretty sweet when we both had fish on at the same time. Won't get much fishing in this week, but i'm free most of the weekend. I deal with alot of people day to day - due to my job - and they are always amazed when I tell them of the fishing right here in the city... Have to show them pictures as proof cause they don't believe me... Quote
