The "Hero" thread.

[Squaretail]

Fishidiot got me thinking and dreaming with his Top Trout thread. I post more than the average and cant help but imagine some of the trout some posters have that we've never seen.
I'll start the bragging with my largest non-Lake Erie trout.
Caught from the run at Yellow Breeches (I know, I couldnt help it once I saw him) at just over 25" on a Clouser crayfish:

My mouths hanging open from running after him as I had7x on. :lol:


The next one is probably my favorite trout and alot of you have seen it before. 3wt 7x has seen it close up. ;-)
Caught from Falling Springs on a Joes Hopper:

I love those marks on the adipose.


I probably put my neck out there to be called a braggart, but truthfully I'd like to see some other folks favorite catches. I know some folks on here that have some real beauties in the photo folders, dont make me call you out.
Show me the money.

What a beauty!

ST - a Clouser crayfish on 7X??? You're an animal... :-D

I know, I know,...it's not a trout, but it IS my first smallmouth on a Clouser Crayfish that Squaretail turned me onto, so I'm gonna post it anyway. Caught it in Hammer Creek, summer 2008. I haven't had the good fortune to catch a braggin' size trout yet, at least not from any "public Streams". I'm REALLY looking forward to seeing some "Top Trout" from others, Bring 'em on!

I am way to modest to engage in this thread.

hahahaha- Just kidding. Here's one- not a great picture.

My only fish of the day and it was 5 minutes before the take out. It made the day memorable.

Here is my biggest wild trout to date 25" from the ditch at Big Spring

Wait I just realized that his tail is past the but of the rod he could be 26 or 27 inches NICE :-D

 

[jmh159]

Nice fish Fred, I hooked into a big brown around that size a few weeks ago at Big Spring. He broke me off though. It was the biggest fish I've ever had on.

 

[pennsadventures]

here is my fish from lititz run 27 inches

 

[flybop]

We never landed this guy, but it scared the heck out of this kid when it snatched the cutty from him!

Aristic, is that my finger in your pic? Sorry bout that.

 

[Acristickid]

Don- nope. Guess I cheated on you.

That is in PA- nope wait, about 1 mile from PA border.

Look forward to some slabs from the lakes soon.
