Brett Robinson - Chicago, IL
After a long and brutal battle, Brett landed this beautiful 23 inch male Madison
River Brown Trout in it's full fall glory. Truly a fish of a lifetime.
Congratulations Brett! October 17, 2001.
Bill Lenahan - San
Francisco, CA After a long Hiatus from the Mother Madison, Billy returned
home and wasted no time showing us that he still knows how to fly fish for
Trout. Awesome Brown! October 8, 2001.
John Lipscomb - St. Louis, MO
Misseur Lippeaux landed this old battle axe Rainbow on the Madison river while
fishing with his wife Celeste. Nice fish John! August 29, 2001.
Yvonne Seiber - San Jose, CA
Yvonne just couldn't sit back and watch her husband catch all the big ones, and
she didn't. this was just one of many big ones Yvonne tricked. August 28, 2001.
David Seiber, again! When
you're hot you're hot. A great morning deserves a great afternoon. Another HOF
Brown for Dave. August 27, 2001.
David Seiber of San Jose, CA
No, this is not a New Zealand Brown, it's from the Madison River!! David
caught this humongous Brown near Ruby Creek. It is the single largest Trout I
have ever seen in the Madison. It measured just over 26 inches. Pictures don't
really do it justice. It was just freaking enormous! Nice job Dave! August 27,
2001.
Sander Coovert, again...This
is getting pretty routine huh Sander? Coming soon is the Sander Coovert Hall of
Fame Page... Congratulations on another beauty Sandman! August 22, 2001.
Sander Coovert - St. Louis,
MO. While fishing with his buddy Mike (below) Sander caught this behemoth
22 inch Rainbow to steal the top spot and become the first 3-time member of the
MTS Hall of Fame. Way to go Sander! August 20, 2001.
Mike Christ of St. Louis
wasted no time getting to the HOF with this beautiful Madison River Brown Trout
on his first day of fly-fishing ever! Congratulations Mike. August 20, 2001.
Todd Deibel of St. Louis
becomes the 2nd member of the Deibel clan to be inducted to the MTS HOF with
this trophy. Of note, is the fact that this was one fish of a double hookup,
both of which were landed. The second fish was caught by Todd's father Dixie,
and it only missed the HOF by a hair! August 6th.
Jasper Williams of Little
Rock, AR couldn't let his Uncle Jan catch the only hall of famer of the trip, so
he hung this riffle pig late in the day to take the top spot. Way to go Jasper!
July 27th.
Jan Williams of Washington,
D.C. proudly displays evidence that sometimes the BIG ONE doesn't get away. July
27th.
John Brune - St. Louis, MO.
Some men fish better with a lit cigar. Obviously this is the case with John.
No matter how you do it though John, fish like this are awesome and don't come
easy. Nice Job! July 11, 2001.
Brad Figel, again! Brad put
himself in a very elite group when he caught this 22" fish of a lifetime on the
Madison, near Varney Bridge. Congratulations Brad! You are only the second
person to make the MTS HOF twice in one day! July 19, 2001
Brad Figel - Washington D.C.
caught this Madison River riffle pig just below Macatee Bridge on a dry fly.
July 19, 2001
John Curby - St. Louis, MO answers the challenge
to become one of the few 2-time members of the Hall of Fame. Look at the gut on
that thing! Way to go John.
Drew Curby - St. Louis, MO also answers the
challenge to make he and John the first father-son hall of fame duo. This
Beaverhead River Brown fell prey to a ginked olive mayfly nymph and a truly
awesome bit of angling!
Rikki Gunnarsdottir -
Hafnarfjordur, Iceland Admires her Madison River Trophy Brown Trout that
she caught on a dry Salmon Fly. (guides get to fish sometime too!)
