It was chicken liver wrapped in pantyhose. The thing I'm questioning is the size of the fish we caught. All were in the 20-24" range and from reading up on the browns it doesn't look like they ever get that big. 8-14 is the norm. I'm totally confused and really curious what they were, brown BH or something else. We were catching them at will, just off a sharp drop off about 10 feet from the bank.
