That is one unbelieveable brown, Pete!
Details, please - what did you catch it on, lake or stream (no place names :-). My guess that it comes out of a lake, but there are, as far as I know, only two places in the world, where salmon-systems hold browns of that caliber and that's Russia/Kola and Iceland. Judging from your cap, I say you're in Iceland ;-).

Great flycasters don't think straight - they track straight.....
If it moves - and shouldn't, use duct tape...
If it's stuck - and should move, use WD40...

Yes it was in Iceland on a river.
The fly used was a black ghost streamer.

Stunning. A trout to make a Kiwi well and truly envious!
