James Hawley here with about a 19 inch brown caught on a tiny stream in southwestern wisconsin. The trout was caught on a bloody bugger opening day of 2008 season. It was quite a battle on James' three weight rod and I waded in up to the top of my chest waders and netted it.

The trout was caught opening day 2009 season. The trout was caught on a blue fox spinner.
