Default Oh My God!

The below trout is not a lake run brown. It was caught in a stream that is typically 3 feet wide and loaded with brookies. The main stay of this
Leviathan's diet was brookies.



Sorry for the HUGE photo but the smaller sized photos don't do it justice.

Holy smokes!!! That is one great looking fish. Is this the fish you mentioned earlier this spring that a friend saw while working on a bridge?
I hope you share the story on this one.
Wow! I can't get over how nice that fish is. Great job and thanks for sharing.

I'd love to hear more details on what it was caught on and the story of landing such a fish.
