2008 Saug. Res. Trout

The day after christmas has been good to me in the past and this year the Res was kind again, giving up this gorgeous 5lb, 20 " Male from Godfreys Cove.


Two trophies in one day! I had an unbelievable day at the res today. I hooked a rainbow that fought like it was 5 times its size, it pulled more line off the reel than any fish prior, swore it was going to be much bigger than it was. Turned out to be a gorgeous Rainbow around 3 lbs or so, very long and slender, no clipped fins, perfection. That one went back. Within an hour I had caught these two that went 6lbs 2oz and 5lbs 4oz. Those two fish make up my Ten trophy Trout Goal within 3 yrs. much shorter than I ever thought it would take. Of course I didnt have my damn camera so im stuck with these crappy pics of dead fish and no record of the rainbow.



10lb 6 oz Female - Finally beat the double digit mark!

This one is in the process of being mounted by Ricks Trophy Mounts - the beat mounts ive ever seen come out of their shop so im excited.


2007 Saug. Res. Trout

7lbs 11oz 24" Brown Trout


6lb 10 oz 25" Brown Trout
An ugly sucker, someone had hooked this one and probably tried to horse it in because one of the sides of its jaws was riped off.


8lbs even 24" a Real slug of a brown.
There was an old man fishing next to me that i had just finished telling
" i never catch anything in this place"
This fish had also been hooked and lost before, one of its jaws was
ripped up like the previous fish.
