Default 24 inch brown caught on Caney with 2lb line

I've been fishing the Caney hard this past week and have been blessed with some good fishing. numbers have been low but I've caught several big fish which makes it worth it. I'm off to the Little Red for the rest of the summer on Sunday which is the reason I rarely post. The brown in the video was caught yesterday at Lancaster and I saw another brown that was well over 30 inches, I guess I'll have to return to try for 30+ incher. There are a lot of BIG fish in the Caney

Nice fish! Were you using the trout magnet rod and a stradic? I get nervous when I swipe at big fish with the net I've hit my line before and freed them lol... Sweet brown!

I was using the 9ft trinity rod and a Shimano saros reel. I'm very grateful that he didn't come off in the first attempt to net him.

Awesome fish!! If all goes as planned I'll be making a trip to fish the Caney at night this weekend.

I haven't fished it much over the years but really enjoy it when I do. About 4 years ago I was wading a bit after sunset and caught a 22" brown, that's my personal best and I really want to get that coveted keeper size 24" fish!

Were you fishing under a float or twitching?

I tie a double uni. Never had an issue. If my line breaks it's at the hook, not the leader.
