Hey Jim Hayden! Just wanted you to know that one of my son's sneaked off with a couple of his boys to do some isolated fishing as he called it. Said nobody was around & the fishing was great! His goal for a long time has been a 5 lb German Brown, well he beat it by a long ways buddy, this monster went over 7 lbs! They caught several nice fish.    Dick |

He's helping that fish do some social distancing from the other fish.
Good on him.

Nice ! Been trying to figure out if the Penn trout opener in mid-April will come off. Fish folks made some adjustments, but its about being able to travel the 3 hours east with growing, tightening travel restrictions. Also not wise to have the 15-25 people gathering at camp for the opening weekend. Quite a party. Members might have to pick separate weekends.

Tell Shane I'm jealous! That's one HECK of a NICE brown for sure!
Our trout season is a week away,, and I haven't heard if they will not do it or what. I figure they will since it's "outdoors & you can keep yourself 6 ft away from others. The kayakers were out in force the other day due to the swollen river & such.

Trapr, I forgot to ask him, he hasn't been doing anything but fly fishing the last year or so but I'm not sure. All the boys caught some 3 lb fish.

Great way to isolate, and an even greater catch.

Hope it was released in some corn meal... This. Nothin' finer than fresh caught trout. When I was 13 or 14, my two older uncles took me trout fishing in the Ozarks. 3 day, 2 night canoe trip, using spinning gear & minnows. I think we caught 42 fish between the 3 of us & ate all but 5 of them during the trip. Awesome time & cherished memory. |

That beauty went to the taxidermist, he's waited a long time to land something even close to that big.

When taking fish photos you're one of two kinds of people. There's fish holder outers and fish holder inners. I'm a holder inner, he's a holder outer.
