On another site sparse grey matter a guy caught a extra large trout on a dry fly. Scroll down to the mighty trout. And see the picture He probably caught it in the Musky around Hackettestown Yeah, Right. But take a look you will be impressed. Vance

I heard it was up in the Delaware, not sure if WB or Main.
