Both Males?

    Initially I thought the brown on the right was a female but I question that after the one I caught yesterday on the left.

    I know both have German strain heritage because of their markings.

    Most male browns I catch that hit the magical 20 inch threshold have a subtle kype year round and it becomes more profound in fall and winter.

    The old fall back indicator of the distance between the eye and the upper jaw is usually the final determiner for me.

    I am going with my first impression here. Left is male and right is female

    my guess

    These two were caught in the same tiny stream about eighty yards apart.

    Left female and right male. They were approximately the same length.
