  2. Honor too? I was hoping for a handful of flies and a free meal. I lingered when I saw the leather trenchcoats and sunglasses.

  3. as always, dirtyyy lookin logo. Don't think i'll even get much of a chance to do some brownlining in Maine..maybe when I move away from the North, if that ever happens! Good stuff though, the coalition gets stronger!

  4. @Ben you can still brownline in Maine, you just need to expand your range of thinking. Cusk, suckers, creek chubs, fallfish, shiners, they are all non traditional species that can be pursued on a fly rod. Since cusk tend to live deep in lakes, they can be difficult to catch during the summer, but there is a good opportunity to catch them in rivers when they make their spawning run in late fall/early winter.

    You guys have longnose suckers. They are badass suckers. They look like a half sturgeon/half sucker. Nab one of those fish this spring on the fly, and I'll dub you a brownliner.
