Justin Spencer Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 Yesterday had a few minutes to kill before Eli got off the bus and went in front of the house to try my luck. Caught 12" brown on my third drift, a few minutes later hooked a monster that ended up being a 23" female. Completely left the water 3 times, and took a nearly 10 minutes to land (no net of course). My biggest trout to this point was a 21" (not counting a 29" seatrout on fly), amazing the difference a few inches makes (that's what she said). Fun that I caught it less than 100 yards from my house. Fishing has been unreal lately with water perfect for wading. If you want to see the whole story of this fish check out my blog My link.

Great fish. I don't know what those fish eat down on the North Fork, but they sure eat a lot of it.
