That is awesome. I wonder how old a fish like that is? Ron

No proof, but I don't think that fish is that old. I have been told they started putting those Kams in there about five years ago. For the past two years my friend has regularly been getting large trout up in the inlet, not that large but it would surprise you the size that he has been catching and at every trip he has been getting them. Whatever the case, a fish that size I think is one in a lifetime, absolutely beautiful.

I fished the river about a mile or two down stream from the town. It was on private land and the fish were HUGE! The trout I saw there were the biggest trout I have ever seen in any river or lake. I caught a couple that were in the 20 to 24 inch range but the real big ones didn't bite. Ron
