A monster on the ramapo river 2-5-23
The trout gods decided to bless me today. A lucky day on the river after a ruff start on the Rockaway. Got skunked on that river. Tried a new stretch. Looked pretty to. But didn't produce for me. Decided to go back to my home waters (Ramapo). Then BAM. She hit the lure like a fright train. Took me a good 10 minutes to get her in. Sorry no net shot as I left it @ home . But no worries. I left her in the water. Never even touched her with my hands. Unhooked her with my fishing pliers. She swam off strong and probably gave me the middle fin

Thank you... yeah they stocked a few of these breeders in the fall. I was quite surprised after I finally got her in to see her size
