Gobbler Nation

I went fishing yesterday at the WMA in Carroll County. I caught this nice brook trout that weighed 2 1/2 lbs and was 17 inches long. I caught 16 trout in all and released all but 6. Many of them were native brooks and native browns. This one will be mounted and put in my fishing room. I think it will make a beautiful display.

Nice

nice brookie

Didn't know they got that big in the East.

Goodun

thats a good brookie! don`t know if you ever fish wv or md but if you ever get a chance try the catch and release sections of the North Branch of the Potomac. Only place on the east coast you can catch cutthroats so i`m told. caught a few there a couple years ago when i was hitting it hard. Big trout there as well, biggest brown i`ve seen was in that section. The cutthroats seemed to hit later in the spring around the end of May if i remember correctly . Don`t know if thats when they stock them or what.

That is a great native brook. I have only caught a dozen or so that were seventeen. Sal is making me get back on the stream.

Sounds fun. Think I would pass on the pine goats, but may be more fun to help others get them.
