i caught this one dead drifting a olive bugger in one of my favorite streams

not trying for an insult here, but there is real irony with your pic and your signature line.

I really don't agree with dragging them on to a muddy bank like that, unless you're going to eat them.

[Flyguy5910]

The fish is alive and well to be enjoyed by another fisherman

"First of the Year"?!? No fair! I've caught 1 20" fish in my life.
I've said it before, but I've gotta get out more.

Seriously, nice catch. Wish I was there.

Although maybe worse for the fish, you probably would have had no negs
if it would have been on an aesthetic pleasing grassy bank.
