Kayser Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 I think I know where you caught the big girl at. http://i.imgur.com/q3owm92h.jpg From October. Look at the spots, particularly the bar or slash between the anal and pelvic fin, and the spots around it. Dare I say, catch and release works? WARNING!! Comments to be interpreted at own risk.

flyfishmaster Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Kayser, I just looked at both photos and you are correct that small bar looking spot is in the same location. That is a great fish to be photo-ed twice. Great catch for the both of you. later, FFM Woo Hoo Fish On!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MikeH Posted January 24, 2015 Author Members Share Posted January 24, 2015 That's pretty cool. I think that may be the same fish. Here's the streamer I was throwing in the morning, a rainbow warrior and a jiggy pheasant tail like I caught the big brown on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members nymphermaniac Posted January 24, 2015 Members Share Posted January 24, 2015 I like the looks of that 'jiggy' pheasant tail. Any chance you would be willing to give out the recipe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members jgentile Posted January 26, 2015 Members Share Posted January 26, 2015 I'm digging that streamer! Buck tail or synthetic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MikeH Posted January 26, 2015 Author Members Share Posted January 26, 2015 Hallow tied bucktail, polar chenille under body, a little arctic fox and shimmer fringe as an over wing. It's a fairly easy tie and a real easy cast for a big streamer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
