    Rainbow Trout

    Angler: George Krumm

    Released

    Girth: 21.5" Length: 31.5"

    Area: upper Kenai River - Date: Oct. 15, 2000

    George was using a 9'6" 8 wt. custom built rod he made,

    a System 2M size 8/9 reel, 11' of 8# Stren fluorocarbon;

    no taper, no indicator, and lastly a hand-tied Illiamna Pinkie

    on a #8 Gamakatsu glow bug hook.

     

    What a great looking fish!! "Illiamna Pinkie"...read a book called "Gamble at Illiamna" by the people who created a first class flies-only lodge up there in AK. Great Read and I haven't read it in sometime....thanks for jogging my memory. May have to go pull it out tonight and start reading it again!
