Oscoda, MI Posts: 2611 | DANG, Jesse!! Where is that?? Funny thing, that pipeline reminds me of the Chattahoochee River in the Atlanta, GA area. I fished that myself in 2002 and caught some nice rainbows & brownies, but not THAT big!! Bigger than that first little dude though, pretty as it is...Well done Sir!! Jonathon | |
No matter how big the one you just caught is, there's always a bigger one out there somewhere... | ||

Novi, MI Posts: 2608 | Jess, I have seen enough of your previous undergraduate work to believe you may be just about ready to begin working on your Brown Trout Masters here on the Au Sable...I think my fellow Michiganders on this site would agree with me that they can be tough...They don't like playing much in the daylight and won't move more than a quarter inch from logs that are up under overhanging cedars,or they stay hidden up under under-cut banks, but we feel that once you can catch Browns here consistantly you just about have it made anywhere else. Consider this a letter of acceptance to Brown Trout U...:) Salvelinus fontinalis! Brings tears to my eyes! That's why us old-school Michigan river-rats feel Rube Babbitt was a visionary and should be nominated for sainthood! He, he! Spence | |

Colorado Posts: 1776 | Awesome! What are the particulars on those browns? Not the location, the story... I'll try a guess... spring high water and...yellow streamers? | |

Posts: 378 | Well as you know i cant say much ha, but your right about the spring time..late spring though only a couple of weeks ago and no they werent on yellow streamers. Most of them actually werent caught on streamers at all. Nymphs and dries. | |
