Niagara River Brown Trout caught swinging with the spey!!

Here's a nice Brown that i caught while swinging flies with the spey rod on the niagara river. I used my Beulah Platinum 13' 2" 7wt rod, Snowbee Geo 11/12 reel, and SA 550 skagit line, 12ft type 8 sink tip and a big ugly pink intruder. The water was about 3-4ft vis and i went 2/3 that day. I landed 2 browns and lost one nice big steelhead also. Just want to say thanks to Courtney Ogilvie from Nile Creek outfitters for hooking me up with this gear and for adding me to their team as an Ontario Field Staff for Snowbee and Beulah.

The fish was actually in shallow water in between a couple of rocks while i was unhooking it...something you can't see in that clip.
