I've been fly fishing for over 40 years. Very Happy

Have caught a few over the years.

Tarpon over 100 pounds in Belize
Tarpon over 80 pounds in Florida
Snook 14 pounds Clearwater Pass Florida
Dorado, 44 inches, Sea of Cortez
Silver Samon 16 1/2 pounds Alaska
Steelhead 18 pounds Gualala River Nor CA
German Brown 8 1/2 pounds Jackson Meadows, Sierras
Strippers to 16 pounds Sacramento Delta

My Dad has landed bigger fish than all above (some very much so)
About six years ago we were fishing for strippers in Franks Track.
He was using a deciever and hooked up a 42 inch Sturgeon.
This is the only Sturgeon on a fly I've ever heard of. Cool

not exactly my biggest, but deffinatly my best ... 3 casts in a row got me 3 smallmouth bass all over 20 inches, one of which was 26 inches ... and those river smallies have a lot more power than any pond bass, largemouth or small. That was a blast!
