Well done. I hope that this is a start of many more battles to come. Some people can't understand a facination for trout but I like them even though I don't think I would want to go exclusively for them and no other species.

I have to say that during the winter that's all I fish for and I just love bringing home four or five 6 to 7 pounders. :D I got hooked a couple years ago and haven't gone back. Theres nothing better than trolling with my force 90 drinking beer listening to a game and talking with my best friend on the clearest lake in South Carolina.
