No judgment here - just reporting the news...

One week after we fished with buddy Jim Kerr, he drifted down the Hoh only to come upon English Pete and this sight.  It's a story that has generated all kinds of emotion and clamor in our neck of the woods, and until now we'd not seen a picture.  We stumbled upon it on The Big Pull.  Big pull indeed.  If you like unprecedented news, different perspectives, and erections that last more than 4 hours, you're gonna want to read this in full detail.

Rumor has it the IGFA is involved.  It's positioned to be the new world record steelhead on the fly.

What would you do?
