It is certainly fatter than the salmon, so it may very well have made double figures.

That is one fair Brownie, it certainly looks to be a double next to the Salmon.

Nice brownie. How old would it be I wonder? How does a browie that size fight compared to a similarly sized salmon?

What a huge brownie, well done. Tell us the story please? Looks a different shape from the big river browns i've seen, though only really seen them up to about 5lbs. There was a big one off Ashiesteel? last spring? but I think they thought that one maybe came out a loch somewhere up the Tweed system. Well done on a great pair of fish.

Cracking trio of fish. What did you catch them on ? Were you fishing for salmon or trout at the time ?
