Brown trout

Brown trout have always been one of my absolute favorite fish.  I used to randomly catch them if I was lucky while catching mostly rainbow trout.  Over the last year or two, I’ve gotten more serious about learning where to find them and how to make them eat my lure.  With another brown season getting ready to kick off, figured I should share a few of my nicer browns over the last year.  Catch, quick photo, & release.   Thanks for looking!!

I thought brown trout only ate at night? that was my biggest take away from "Trout Tactics" that and using Humphreys'  own brand of flat mono in place of fly line. I've always wondered  if he commissioned Cortland to make that stuff for him or if they paid him to sell it. Never really caught on I guess,  who else used Cobra fly line?

I can show you easily 100 pictures of browns caught during the day.   Most over 20”.   Humphrey is a joke in my opinion.  Videos done on “private” access farmed streams were more than lame.  IMO.  No offense to you.

I have caught dozens of brownsin the day time but the big ones are predatory and usually hunt other fish at night. Most other aggressive response is from territorial aggression. That said everyone has a theory and they are just that.  Most of the big browns I've seen in the day time on streamers have Been around 12 to 2pm...

Dad caught this one on Taneycomo this past Saturday shortly after noon. A bit over 23" and 5.32lbs.
