Home Forums Fishing Freshwater Brown On Both Sides...

Brown trout on both sides of the creek that is.

Yesterday after work things fell into place and I was able to go wet a line.

The first fish I caught wasn't very big, but at least it proved this jig could catch fish.


The next fish was a little better.


I caught several more fish between 12" to 16" and then this guy latched on. He is a pretty darn good sized fish for this tiny creek I was fishing. In fact he might be my best out of this creek. If not he's definitely in the top two or three for this little creek.


Unfortunately I had taken my tape measure out of my vest earlier. (I had put it in my day pack during deer season to measure horns and antlers and had forgot to put it back in my vest.) Anyway I couldn't measure him, but an educated guess says he's right around 19" to 20". He is on the skinny side, but he had a big head and is an older fish.

Nice brown trout. I've been wearing them out down here in TN. 20+ inchers are average size.

Nice!

Some guys down here put marks on their rods so they can measure out line. Would probably work for fish as well.
