Makes me wish we had browns in the streams 'round here. I think the closest watershed that has 'em is the Deschutes.

Gorgeous. I bet that thing busted a knuckle. How was the strike? Explosive, or did it sip that hopper pattern?

Wow!! Mitch, you are the Man!!!
Terry, here. I sent you a PM about the Silvers in the Salt last week. We really got into a pod of silvers right on the surface. It was amazing! Got to take you sometime and do it. Jeff, of course, was 'the Man' with the hot rod, because of his casting ability. We landed 23 to keep 5 in about 4 hours....it was golden!
Great to see your post....keep hammering them, Beautiful Brown!
Terry
