oldypigeonpopper Posted April 16, 2017 Report Share Posted April 16, 2017 (edited) hello, good fishing i always found brown trout have a slightly muddy taste compared to rainbow, we always release the browns on our club lakes, last one caught was 6llb Edited April 16, 2017 by oldypigeonpopper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferret664 Posted April 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2017 Have to say it was so rough yesterday I was using a intermediate line far to rough for a floater and the washing line technique most fish fell to the booby on the point but had 2 on the buzzers (the brown and one rainbow ) those two fish on the buzzers meant so much more to me then the ones on the booby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomaddy525 Posted April 24, 2017 Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 Grafham is fishing its socks off at the minute. My most memorable brown was caught about 50 yards off the boat harbour in the Airflo Team comp a few years ago and weighed just under 6lb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
