The first truly big American trout that I ever caught was a brown. The first New Zealand trout that I ever caught was a brown. The first Tasmanian trout that I ever caught was a brown. The first Russian trout that I ever caught was a brown. The first English trout that I ever caught was a brown. The first…beginning to see a pattern here?

I love brown trout. They have figured huge in my angling life, and for me, a heavily spotted, hook-jawed brown, with flanks of butter and fins of gold, will always be a poster-trout for fly fishing.
