Where for Art Thou Brother Trout? Fish Number 4 Rainbow Trout! (Salmo gairdneri)


The Brothers' Cabin Camp Marist
We stayed in this cabin for a few nights with our friends and took Bella and Zoe fishing. We didn't expect to catch anything, we were fishing in four feet of water using tip-ups and a huge night crawler and a big fat hook and a weight that was far too heavy...


The girls really enjoyed clearing slush out of the holes.
The tip-ups were set
The flag popped...FISH ON!
A Pretty Rainbow Trout!

Perfect!

Bella (front) Zoe under the arm!
Now the long walk back through the snow to the cabin to cook the fish...stay tuned

    The correct genus is Oncorhynchus mykiss, not S. Gairdneri, still those were BEAUTIFUL trout, especially with those full tails! Those were definitely wild born!
