Here's a picture of that weird stuff on this poor brownie. Does anyone know what it is even??? Seen it a few times in the past year but I sure didn't catch that ugly brown on my fly rod.[/quote]
That is an example of a fish affected with fungus as a result of its spawning activities. In a couple of weeks, you will find one of those dying fish in nearly every run on the middle or the LoPro. Just natures way of thinning the herd.
Here is more info on it.

Thanks for the report. I'm debating whether to hit the LoPro or Strawberry tomorrow. Ahhh, decisions.
