Nice fish! I'm teaching myself to fly fish. It's a steep learning curve. I had a good friend show me the basics. That helped A LOT!

We don't want them that big in MA, DCrane. They'd be poisonous! Have to eat lots of floaters around here to hit that size .... :lol:

Thanx Sperry...

Their jaw does that the longer they are in the stream. Im guessing from lack of eating. After they return to the lake they straighten out again as when I catch them in the lake or just up out of the lake they have a straight lower jaw.....
