Nice fish almost looks like Pine.

All the fish I have caught on fly over 40 yrs can't recall one putting up a fight that I couldn't revive it for release. Must be an old bruder.

Nice personal best. Might take a while to beat.

Troller mentioned it might be an old brood hen. The old brood stock I've seen usually look old and their fins are worn down. This fish looks to be in nicer shape from the picture. Might not be a retired brood hen.
