My best Trout
« on: May 27, 2011, 12:40:08 am »
Just took a trip to Vermont and caught my best trout. Rainbow, 4 1/2 lbs. and 22 inches. My buddy caught two nice browns,  3 1/2 lbs. and 19 inches..

Congrats!! That's one fine fish! Here in warm weather country we get to catch 6 inch stocked rainbows in November.. Small fish, but still fun to catch.. Especially for the kiddos  8)
