I recently met a veteran poster on the stream bank. Nice to meet you BC. He mentioned this forum. Seems like a good place
30 mins earlier, I landed a big fish, a fish that owns a very popular hole in a VERY popular stream. This guy lives under a non stop barrage of lines. I was fortunate to be one of the lucky ones to land this fish. Good hookset, 4X flouro tippet took lots of tension. after about a five minute stalemate, I horsed the fish. Definitely a gamble. stone under bobber. Est. 28", although if I picked it up and held it out............
I'm sorry to come in bragging, but I've been fishing the truckee area hard for two years and this is my pb. Glad to have found this place. }<(((((«°>
nice to meet you out there bro. that was a monster even if i didnt see it out of the water. that thing was a pig just swiming around in that whole. hopefully ill see you around there again. i guess i have a person i can contact when i want to know how the fishing is. again nice to meet ya and we will definitly be fishing together soon.

Fishing isnt about catching fish, its not about who caught the most, or who caught the biggest, its about the experience that you have on the water, and the life long bonds you make with others on the journey to becoming a better person inside.
That was a pig...and the picture doesn't do it justice.
It is what it is, layin there at my feet. No opportunity for picture trickery. Every time I've gotten home and downloaded a fish picture, I've been slightly dissapointed That pic though........that's my trophy
