Hoppers and Brook Trout

**AZWanderings** · 08-15-2010, 09:40 AM

Spent the day on one of my favorite streams and brought several nice fish to hand. This particular brookie was an extremely healthy fish for this stream. I landed a nice 15 inch brown with beautiful colors who ended up being a little camera shy. I'll have to go back and fool him again.

Just like others have mentioned, that is a beautiful picture of a Brook Trout! We don't have them in the UK, I love the colours of the fins and those white markings on them! Great photo BTW.

Thank you guys for the kind words. I absolutely love the enthusiasm that these fish put into attacking a fly. It is always when you least expect it and makes you think you've latched into a monster. The color schemes that are painted onto these guys are also amazing. Thanks again.
