Now that’s a hefty brown. Must say I am a little jealous. Good job!
That thing is a hookie beastie…amazing for sure nice on the C&R also…that place has some big’ns for sure…lost a beastie bow several years ago. Managed a couple of browns but nothing near that one…again congrats to you.

thanks for all the comments, it was a great day fishing
beauty fish! Nice job on the toad!
Excellent!
SOLID !! way to stay after it and get what you were after. was it casting or trolling? did you catch any other browns? Nice work
Thats where it’s at!
Trolling a 7" lure that was running 18ft down
Only one caught
Thats one hell of a brown man! Congrats!!
WOW! I can’t believe you didn’t keep it though.

Why…Just curious…
I’d be surprised if he had kept it. I think he has a lot of respect for those big browns,… no reason to kill them really. I can’t imagine they taste very good (but I think that about all trout really so)
Also I don’t think he was out looking for a meal. Something tells me he was after bigger fish for catch and release purposes.
I know he can catch big fish, but that is a trophy for sure. Just not a good way of holding a fish that big (or any trout) if you are releasing that is all. No waves.
i know many people dont like that way of holding them but there are no fingers in the gills and he swam away strong..
its all good
That’s bad ass! Nice job bro!
Nice fish.
Very Nice fish , hook jaw matches the hat. Thanks for the release.
