Guess who won the fight---------the brown by far---details in my next post. <br /><br />Cathey and I will be here all week, looking forward to sample those delicious treats thanks--<br />Bill Trussell<br />3045 Dogwood Trail<br />Spring, Hill Tennessee 37174<br />Bill Trussellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15351692272817692157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8518971929369280752.post-4539548017736177122017-08-22T12:52:39.379-04:002017-08-22T12:52:39.379-04:00Howard

I had a twenty race across the river from me yesterday and with it almost to my backing, he wasn't budging. They seem to be smarter than the rainbow too. He knew right where there was undergrowth to hide in and for me to break off. So, I want to send you that package this week.

My experience is the browns out our way generally give you a better fight unless you hook up with a wild rainbow. They go nuts when they feel the hook.cofisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12288930899340581141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8518971929369280752.post-80453342327573389222017-08-17T19:07:30.312-04:002017-08-17T19:07:30.312-04:00Bill there's no better place to get an educati...Bill there's no better place to get an education than on trout rivers.<br />As John Voelker said..."trout all have framed masters degrees in evasion"Brk Trthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12677442640158367831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8518971929369280752.post-81468795100025545702017-08-17T17:57:02.653-04:002017-08-17T17:57:02.653-04:00Pete

Some of the larger holdover rainbows also give you quite the battle. The wild brookies in their own right put up a pretty good fight too. I would agree with Kevin Frank that the wild trout put up a better fight.

There does definitely seem to be a difference between wild river trout and stockers. The wild ones definitely put up a greater fight.
