With a one hand filled with metal, Devan Ence of Northern Colorado, takes down the photo contest! This picture had the right balance of fall colors, river background, and a unique way of displaying a beautiful steelhead. Devan will have his choice of a Kype Noodle rod or some Kype w a t e r p roof clothing made from Amphibian Skin.

Devan explained that the photo was taken by Jon Harp while they were fishing in upstate New York. He said it was an outrageous day on the water catching some big browns and steelhead. He was nymphing a black flashback hares ear, when this fish pounded it and shot downriver like a rocket. There was no turning back, they followed the fish down and was able to put her in the net. A nice “henrietta.” Devan was fishing a 9' 6wt with 4x tippet. Be sure to check out the awesome brown and steelhead runs right in our backyard, the Great Lake tributaries. The article on page 16 provides some information on one of the best rivers in New York, the Salmon River.
