Jason Eckhoff - St. Louis, MO Jason caught
this big beautiful Brown on a not so beautiful August day. Just one of many fine
fish he fooled that day. The photo came in late, so we're giving him top spot
for a while. August 18, 2004.
John Davis - St. Louis, MO. No, that is
not the same fish! John caught these two twin sisters within just a few minutes
of each other on what turned out to be a stellar fall day on the Maddy.
Congratulations John on making the HOF 3 times in one season. October 10,
2004.
Ken Collins...Again! MO beauty Bow caught on a
small dry fly. Sept. 27, 2004.
Shep McKinney - Maryland. We went to the
Missouri in search of large Rainbows, and found 'em ! Shep took this
beautiful Missouri River Rainbow on a small Baetis dry fly under absolutely
ideal fall conditions. September 27, 2004.
Ken Collins - Maryland. On his first day fishing
the Madison, Ken really saw her true colors. This was the second (and smaller)
of two beautiful Browns Ken caught in a matter of minutes. Unfortunately #1
didn't get his picture taken because of technical difficulties. What a day!.
Sept. 26, 2004.
Jeff Smith - Ketchum, Idaho. Smitty caught this
and many other fine Trout on the Madison while living the dream and fishing with
his good friends Josh, Glen, and Billy. I'm certain there are many more like it
in his very near future. Sept. 2, 2004.
Ty Edmondson and Kevin King - Boston and San
Francisco respectively. Ty landed this stunning Madison River Brown Trout while
doing some fall fishing with his good friend. Kevin's fish was close to trophy
status so we're including him here based on an appeal filed by his friend Ty.
Congratulations to you both and thanks for a memorable day. Sept. 10, 2004.
Alma Davis - St. Louis, MO Alma landed
this beautiful Brown Trout on a size #18 bead-head Bling-Bling while
fishing with her good friend Carol, who also came within a fraction of the HOF.
August 16, 2004.
Sander Coovert....again! This is Sander's
best Madison River Brown Trout ever! That's really saying something, given the
number of trophys he's caught here over the last 10 years. August 14th, 2004.
John Davis - St. Louis, MO After a few
years hiatus from the HOF, John Boy makes a triumphant return with this
beautiful male Brown. What a pig! July 30th, 2004.
Alex Miles - New York, N.Y. The fish of
the season so far, and Alex's career so far! Look at the maw on that guy. Alex
mastered the fine art of streamer fishing and this was his reward. July 6, 2004.
Sander "Big Fish" Coovert - St. Louis, MO. This
guy needs no introduction by now. Yet another trophy tattooed by the Sandman at
an un-disclosed location. July 6, 2004.
Nicole Miller - St. Louis, MO. Not to be
out-done by her brother (below), Nicole hung this awesome Brown Trout in the
'straights of misery.' After years of harassing Trout in the Madison River, she
was definitely due to make the HOF. Congratulations! July 3rd, 2004.
Sander Coovert - St. Louis, MO. It didn't take
the Sandman long to hit a home run on his favorite Trout stream this summer.
This beauty makes Sander the only 6 time HOF member. I think we may have to
raise the bar to 24 inches fro this top-notch predator! July 3rd, 2004.
Jeff Musselman - Bozeman, Montana. Jeff
proudly displays a two-foot Madison River Brown trout which he caught at an
undisclosed location on an undisclosed fly, while fishing with friend, guide,
and photographer Greg Perry. A great start to what will hopefully be a great
season filled with many more memorable days and fish like this one. May 21,
2004.
Randy Green - Cameron, Montana. Randy displays a
nice Madison River Brown Trout which he caught this spring on the Pall to Varney
'Death March.' All I can say is: given the guidance he must have received
from the two guys he was fishing with, this must have been just one of many....
