Who says there are no trout left ??

Hey, when you're good, YOU'RE GOOD!

Agreed. I think it's a load of crap too.

He's got a product to sell, and he posts outrageous numbers in order to help push that product.

Say what you want, I know him personally and is actually a great guy. Honest and does exactly what he says. He sells his homemade spinners very reasonable and will answer any questions anybody has. He hols seminars throughout the year to help in casting techniques, reading streams etc. He will not tell you the streams he fishes but when you go to a small creek and see his vehicle, you are in for a great day as long as you are not behind him. His friend, although does not use his spinners, catches similar numbers and the goal is 100 trout a day. I have fished with him and he kicks my butt. Spent the weeknend with him at a small wild trout stream and we together caught 135. I was at 40. He can cast like I have never seen. Pulls fish from where I would never attempt to cast. Very very fast paced and they cover a lot of stream. Believe it or not, whatever you want, but straight up this guy can fish. Period.

is he related to chuck norris?

Im sure this guy can fish, no doubt, but dont you think the whole idea of fishing is skewed when you keep track of the exact number you catch every day?

A few years back he said he was an accountant by trade, and numbers are how he thinks about things. I don't know him, but know of him.

I believe you can find his email address on one of his posts. It was FrankTroutAngler@aol.com Not sure if it is still current though. Also, as far as keeping track and numbers and stuff, you see the show Big Bang Theory Sheldon????? Nuff said. Great guy though and it is not meant to brag if you know him and have talked to him. I do understand though how some would think that. The last time I bought his spinners, they were only 1.50 each but the metal has gone up quite abit since then. As I said earlier, it is not all in the spinner but the stream he chooses and they way he fishes. I have used them for steelhead and had some success. You see him on the stream, you would never know he was a really good fisherman. Dresses like a ordinary guy with hip boots, makes his own rods, suitable for his casting and height and probably has less than 50.00 in his total gear. Don't need a 800.00 rod or 300.00 chest waders or a 100.00 vest. He just catches fish.

This dude belongs on the hunting PA forum.....

Does he scream Bazinga with every hook up?

223 fish in 10.5 hours thats a fish every 2.8 minutes with no break.....BS....or maybe he caught 20 in 20 seconds so he could stop for a smoke or what have you.

Whatever you do, don't go over there any make any comments to him which could be construed as criticism.  He doesn't seem to take them very well

2. Or by some strange coincidence this many fish are actually being caught.

Why is this a strange coincidence?
In my former "trout bum days" I have had many 100-fish days. I know many others that have done the same.

You believe in just 4 days time over 900 fish were caught? Let me say that again...900 fish! I've never personally had a day of 100 fish, but I wouldn't discredit anyone that said they have. The reason for that being 100+ does seem possible.

If everything is right, I absolutely believe it's possible.
