Default Undisclosed River in TN

On Sunday I was on this river and witnessed a single person net three brown trout over 30 inches. One was probably around 10lbs. Unfortunately, this individual kept two of the three. He was with two others so I expected the thought it was OK. Heartbreaking for me to see a huge fish of a lifetime like that snatched from the river. I can see keeping one but two?!?!?! Invariably these are the individuals that pee and moan about how the next year there are no big fish.

I ended up catching (76). I caught (2) 18" browns and probably 15 bows and browns over 15inches. The slot is working.

I did see some other bruisers sharking about but still if you catch a giant, get a replica made and put her back. It's like hunting for bigfoot for your entire life then shooting it. Let the big hairy bastard go. Without him life is less interesting.
