Huge Muskie caught on a Fly in MN
An absolute Monster caught on a fly.
Robert Hawkins knew the muskie was big when it hit his fly. It wasn’t until the fish, having come from straight on, turned broadside, though, that he realized just how large it was.

ESL old standby
New and fancy patterns are always coming out, but sometimes going old school is the best policy. The ESL is a standard pattern. ESL stands for Egg Sucking Leech. Yesterday we got on the board with a fresh steelhead up from the lake that very morning, if I had to guess. On a orange headed black rabbit strip egg sucking leech.
