Big Rainbow. - hooknhunter - 01-11-2014 Sorry guys, I can't tell you what lake this bruiser came from, but my buddy Dan caught this BEAUTIFUL rainbow today. We got that last 2.5 minutes or so on video. I'll upload it in a few days. This fish was 29 inches long with 19.5 inches girth. [url "http://trailstotrout.com/calculator.html"]http://trailstotrout.com/calculator.html[/url] calculates this fish to be 13.75 lbs. Here's the primer. Tight lines Guys! Sorry, the picture didn't upload the first time. Hopefully it's there now.

Those fish are huge. [signature] Re: [hooknhunter] Big Rainbow. - AverysAdventure - 01-11-2014 Holy cow that thing is a pig! Way to go guys. Congrats to Dan. Did you guys manage to catch any others?

[signature] Re: [Duck-Slayer] Big Rainbow. - boredfishing - 01-11-2014 great fish guys. How many holes did you have to get it through? Did you make two holes next to each other? Or just the one 10 in was good enough? [signature] Re: [hooknhunter] Big Rainbow. - Untangler - 01-11-2014 Wow. Thanks for getting slobber all over my keyboard.
