Default 1 of the highlights of my angling life!

I know that to a lot of you on here this is nothing special but to me this was awesome! Living in a city just north of London, wild brown trout is like gold dust. Went on a trip to the hebrides this week just gone and managed to catch my 1st EVER wild brownie Weighing it a just 4oz caught on a pheasant tail nymph, this was far better than 99% of all other fish i've ever caught

Fantastic fish Dave, 4oz or 4lb it doesn't matter a jot.
It's wild and wonderful. Well done.
