Can't take credit for either of these; just looking forward to
my chance at catching one !
Top photo (black T-shirt); this
beauty weighed in at 4.23 lbs.!
The one the youngster in the
white sweatshirt is holding (2nd photo) is a Gila trout (Arizona native species); it weighed in
at a whopping 5.12 lbs.! Both
were caught at Goldwater Lake
in Prescott, Az.; the Gila trout is
truly exceptional, as Gila and Apache trout were nearly on
the brink of extinction back in
the '90s ! Thanks to the great
work by the naturalists,
breeders and hatchery workers
here in Arizona, they've both
made a fantastic comeback !

Musta been a fun fight . But now they are dead . They won’t grow any larger or have offspring . A pity . You coulda taken a picture and release these big fish . You coulda gone to McDonald’s and ate a Big Mac instead . Poor Fish

I release 9 out of ten trout I catch, but there is nothing as good as frying up an ice large brook trout.

The second one held by the white shirt looks like an old spawned out salmon, color wise?
