[cool][#0000ff]A story in the Outdoor section of the Tribune today tells about a guy catching two big browns, on back to back casts with a bubble and fly at Grantsville Reservoir. One was a dinky 5 pounder. The other was that biggun...17.8 pounds.[/#0000ff]

Wow! I have heard of many nice browns coming out of Grantsville res. 2 in a row is awesome and 17.8 lbs. is a huge fish for such a small body of water, but I'll bet G'pa brown is still in there.

It sure don't look like 17# to me. Maybe just a bad pic.

I got this picture in an email a couple of months ago. This fish is from Grantsville Reservoir in January and was released. I don't know anything else about him or what he was using.It kind of bummed me out to see the article because now Grantsville Res. will probably get slammed. This picture on here may not help either, but since the one is in the tribune i thought i'd share this one.
