This one showed up in the fishing report section, but for me, it belongs here.....

16'ish inch Rainbow taken on a TFO "Lefty" 6' 2wt., Sage 3100 reel with unknown cheap 2wt line, 9' 5x leader, black beadhead wooly bugger taken from the southernmost trout fishery in the United States--the Guadalupe River in south Texas.

This is a 3 lb. smallmouth from the upper Hudson River, in upstate NY. It was caught on a beadchain olive flash bugger with 4x tippet.
Diamondback 7'9 trout classic 2 wt. w/ Orvis BBSII
This was one of 71 smallies landed on 9/13. A great day with a great rod. Thanks to my wife for the pic and for paddling the yak!

I'm updating my favorite UL "Wall of Fame" post because ... well, the other one was from last year.

My Bro' and his lady friend were over on the Island visiting, last weekend. They both live "in the city", and don't get out into the woods very often - so Melissa and I decided a day trip out to our favorite bit of the Island was in order.
I took along the 2wt (of course) because we decided to hike in, and pic-nic along a beautiful little stream...

> 2/3 wt Anglers Roost IM6 full/mid flex Blank/ Browning Black Canyon reel
> 3WF Floating Generic $10 line/Feruled leader/4x tippet
> bead head San Juan worm
This more than doubled the weight of my previous best Rainbow

• Sage TXL 00wt/ 00 quiet double taper line/ Orvis BBS1 reel/ 6x tippet
• Yellow #12 Madam X
• Brown Trout 12"
• Nettle Creek ;)
• This was a super fun fish to catch on the 00wt! I was hiding behind a rock when I tossed my fly in, I had 1 fish look at the fly and then out from below a rock this guy came out and hammered the fly! He was my largest local brown to date. It was so much fun watching him charge the fly so the other smaller Brown couldn't eat it!

Cabela's 3 Forks combo 3wt with 6lb P-Line Floroclear
Size 10 dirty white woolly bugger
Carp
Small Ohio Stream
Landed this guy in April in couple feet of clear water.
He was feeding heavy, making those puffs of
smoke on the bottom. Heard my fly hit the water and moved to
take it as it fell.

A most special 3wt fiberglass fly rod with agate guides and staggered, hand-blued metal ferrules. This is Mike's 10th Anniversary Rod, and since serial number 1 was lost in Michigan, this one with serial number 2 is one of only 9 in existence. Rigged here with a CFO II.

5'6" 1 weight bamboo rod built on Tony Spezio blank, 1.2 ounce
Dennison micro reel, .9 ounces with Sage Quiet Taper WF1F line
Jerry's Secret Pond, Spring 2009
Not my all time favorite fish, but the biggest ever caught on this rod. One weight bamboo rods are hard to obtain. The Dennison reel is very small and only fits the dedicated reel seat. The grip is made from cork inserts glued end to end and tapered at the front.

Cabelas 3wt Three Forks rod with Cabelas Prestige reel
Hopper pattern
Cutthroat Trout
Methow River, Washington State
I decided to do some fishing while vacationing in WA and I decided to pick up a Cabelas Three Fork combo before we left ($40 after discounts and credit card incentive). One of my favorites since I had started to learn fly fishing and this was my very first trout ever.
