Ahh.... that brings back some great memories from trips I used to take back home in NF.. nothing but you..your buddies, nature, and of course lots of flies! great to hear you escaped them this trip...

Great pics and looks like it was a great time for sure!

You've set the bar high TS. Still loving the shots, got to see them all tonight. News is though bud, I'm leaving friday and some specks may just be on the line.

One of the guys I went to BC with, I guess his dad was speechless about a brookie Tom caught up the French. 2 years ago Tommy's dad mounted a 6+ pounder Tom had caught at the mouth of the Moose River at James Bay. I guess this fish he brought home last week was bigger, and Tom's dad, (when trying to describe it) had some difficulty with the footage. Could just be another fish story, but, that entire family knows fishing up here better than most others.

I better beat him to that spot this w/e. Keeping my fingers crossed that that fishies twin is still in the current break.

Thanks for the comments everyone, that's what I love about Speckled Trout, to be where they live is a treat regardless of catching! I would rather be skunked in Speck country than limited out in Bass waters further south. I like Bass fishing too though!
