The SMOTM response has been phenomenal and there are many smolts to come in the next week. Here, between the straw fedora and the sheer enthusiasm, Dano Pendygrasse of Vancouver, BC has undeniable panache and style when it come to hauling in the mini trophies. He sends over this fine, fine smolt specimen from a secret CDN tarn known for its epic small fishery. Double thumbs up, Dano! Grab yourself a Kokanee (the beer) and toast to your own epic moment here on SMOTM. Check out his amazing culture and sport imagery at http://www.danopendygrasse.com/
