Glad He Didn't Bite Me! - Big Sky - 04-19-2021

Glad he bit the fly and not my hand! That could have gone really bad for me. Toothy bugger!

Beautiful fish and great pic!

Nice fish and great pic! Just a suggestion though. Your not allowed to advertise YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, etc. So you should probably take out that part... No hate just letting ya know. But still a great fish!

Wow, that thing does have some teeth. It looks like a bow to me but I can't say I've ever seen one like that, do they only get those teeth when they get big and old or did I miss ID it?

It is a rainbow, but has bigger teeth than what I normally see on them.

OK, so that must also mean that big bows, like that one, are meat eaters, for some reason I always thought bows did not eat other fish. Maybe when they are smaller they don't?

The definitely become meat eaters as they get older. Biologist have a technical term for when they convert from mostly insects to eating fish called piscivorous.

I've heard that term before, I just thought it did not apply to bows. I learned something new today Cool

I caught some hook jaw Rainbows. The males defiantly had some big teeth going on during the spawn.
