Hi everyone, I'm in the E. Sierra for a few days and was lucky enough to get some video of a big Brown eating a 14" rainbow. Check out the link to a short video on YouTube

Look forward to seeing everyone on Saturday am at the One Surf Fly.

Cheers, Ken

Wow! Crazy Samson-esque stuff. I think that fish ended up dead on the bank downstream, though. Darrin sent me a pic posted on the Kern forum of a similarly-sized brown with a rainbow in his mouth. Great vid!

Very cool Ken. Something you don't see but a few times in a lifetime I would guess. Thanks for posting it.

Hey Ken,

Time to put Dean to work on designing a 8"-10" Articulated Rainbow Flutterin' Dry...

Apply the FF with a paint brush...

PT/TB :stupid:

Already checked with Kevin at the Ranch, I can fish Deerhair Mouse flies for the Big Browns.... So a Gigantic Floating Trout is an Okie Dokie... 8-) ;)

A few years ago I netted a brown that was over 24 inches on the LO. I didn't hook him though. He wouldn't let go of the 12 inch brown that ate my dry fly. Now I'm thinking I should get wise and tie some trout flies on a #2 4x length hook
