That is one rare & beautiful Brook Trout. We use to have Brookies in Colorado like that back in the good Ole days. I guess we must of fished them out.

My buddies Brook Trout...the biggest I've EVER seen.

May have been the new state record, but he never had it officially weighed.

This bad boy had a 19 1/2" girth. I still look at it and can't believe what a "TOAD" it is.

Holy cow! Man, I've done a bit of Brookie fishing in Montana but have NEVER seen anything even close to that one!

Are ya sure it wasn't caught next to a nuclear power plant or something?!?!?

Brett, Thanks! Do you know how many years ago? I didn't know they were any brookies like that left in the Rockies. Was it caught in Beaver pond? Nightcrawler? Just guessing...................... :-k

Thanks.
