Title: A couple of Brownies from a few years ago :)

As it says on the tin..a couple of Brown trout i had when a bit younger. The net laying under the big fish has 42" arms so will give you an idea of size! Both fish are wild and caught from a park loch when after Carp :)

Six pounds, taken on a boillie

14 pounds taken off the top on a floating dog biscuit :)

Not traditional I guess..but still very good fun on light stalking gear :)

Strange guy at top looks really familiar, must have been before you started shaving :z4 :z4 :z4 :z4 :z4 :z4 Mind you did you ever? :z4 :z4 :z4

Great photos though:z16

Fish at the bottom is awesome, only you could catch something like that with a dog biscuit.
What flavour?

Twas a Pedigree Mixer, softened by using water that had Marmite dissolved through it!!.. :z16

You would not believe the water thay came from, certainly not a water you would associate with big brownies...kinda knocks the traditional theories on the head somewhat!
