Default New Ifisher

Hi Guys,

So I am new hear and I understand the tradition for telling a fishing story as a first post. Se here you are...

I was fishing with my brother ( who is an amazing fly fisherman) in glacier park. We fished for some time in an outback stream (occasionally fighting off the bears) We were fishing for trophy trout when suddenly my line dropped and I realized I had hooked a monster...

Jim (my brother) was close by and was yelling encouragement at me while I fought the fish. I brought the trout to the bank... a nice 20 inch + keeper and Jim came to my aid in an attempt to land the fish... and lost it through the net... I'm still mad at him for it... he is a klutz, but I have to be nice cause he's a Mod here. You guys know him as Newbs. If you are fishing with him... be careful.

Joe
