A 17" brown trout who ate my wet fly imitation, early morning. (He was released right after photo.)

| Wisconsin Posts: 663 | This morning on one of my favorite NW Wisconsin streams I found Ephoron leukon spinners and duns covering spider webs near the stream. Also, a wet fly version of Ephoron leukon worked great at catching trout still looking for the little white mayflies. http://www.wiflyfisher.com/ephoron-leukon-mayfly-hatch.asp | |

| Wisconsin Posts: 663 | Jason, I never said what river! :-) It's hard to compete with your terrific digital shots! Especially with my el cheapo point-and-click camera. Of course, even if I had the more expensive stuff I still wouldn't know how to use it. I need a mouse and a keyboard for everything. :-) | |

| Twin Cities Posts: 9 | Nice fish, probably best not to let it touch land though... not great for mortality. Whenever possible, trout should be wet released and if you really need a pic, wet your hands and hold them or get a shot in your net while they are in the water. | |
