A brown of a lifetime  for most guys for sure.  The irony of the situation is that my fathers friend George (in pic) who brought the fish in actually caught an 18 lber. back in '88 during the spring ESLO derby. 

Thanks for the compliments guys.  I will pass them on to 'the crew'...

Thats a nice lookin brown ya got there . We get those big boys over here in lake Michigan too. I think they mostly feed on smelt alwifes and other baitfish.
