That first pic i could do without,reminds me of seeing pics of the old days with large stringers of fish,these days catch and release is the norm.I hope you are within your limits regarding that catch.

Thats why we were happy to bring a few back with us, the local vancouver stocked rainbow trout taste horrible. I cant stand the dirty taste.. there is no covering up that taste no matter what you try. We fished all day for days with nothing more than a bite, then a local told us a trick and it was fish on.. I think for big fish its larger local lakes, the deeper may hold some bigger fish as well as fishing the larger natural lakes we do have.
