Bonhams’ auction house in Edinburgh, Scotland, will be the scene of an
exciting sale on November 11, when a 121-year-old mounted brown trout goes on the block. Caught in 1889, the trout weighed in at a whopping 29 pounds and was the British record wild-caught trout for more than 100 years.
And speaking of bonefish, here’s some
great video of tailing bones—enough to get the juices flowing thinking about some wintertime tropical fly fishing.
New York’s Salmon River will be the scene of a
“Catch and Clean” tournament on November 13th. Anglers will be picking up trash while they fish and are required to fill at least one 30-gallon trash bag in order to enter a fish and qualify for prizes. The event is being held by the Lake Ontario Tributary Anglers Council.
