First of 2017....... Big Browns!!
Finally got out for the first time in 2017 this past Monday. Had great conditions, temps in the 50s, flows just a bit above average, and overcast skies. Took a nice 2-3 hour hike and found plenty of action!!! All I could seem to catch were big browns?!?!
 Action wasn't steady but whenever I got bit, it was a good fish. First fish was easily my best stream fish and possible PB. My previous being a lake caught stocked breeder. The good flows made the fight even tougher. Caught 3 browns total. Even the small one was a really nice fish!!!! Couldn't have asked for a better kickoff to the new season......

Re: First of 2017....... Big Browns!!
An angler sent me a photo of a nice (24”, 5lb.) brown that he caught & released in the Del. River just upstream of Lambertville. He was jigging for Walleyes.
Thought the brown might be a sea run, but it didn’t look like it to me. Either a stockie or wild fish (the fins looked nice) that came swam from a cold tributary to the now, uniformly cold, mainstem Del. R.
