Pic of the Day: You Know It Was A Big Fish When…

Shane and his folks spent the past weekend in Craig fishing the Missouri.  More to come on that later…

Anyway, Shane really wanted to get into some nice fish during their trip.  At some point over the weekend I got this picture:

This fly was not mauled by pliers and wire cutters.  It looked like that after a big grab and a short fight.  It’s not some home tie on a shitty hook either.  This is, or was, a nice store bought nymph from a reputable fly shop.

The conclusion?  That was a damn big fish.
