Well took a few friends to my fishing/bear watching spot, we seen one small black bear across the river and I managed to land a huge brown trout. I am 99% sure its a brown but anyways here is the pick:

Horrible pics of a great fish, but yes that is a big brown.

I am envious, I havent broken the 20" mark with a brown.

I know my camera is crap but I am still very proud I landed em, and I think I am getting alot better at fishing in Alberta. I am also having a blast doing it and I think the area I fish has relatively low pressure cause the smallest Ive caught was 14" and they all seem to be nice and fat for their sizes to. From my knowledge they all seem to be brown trout so I wonder what other trout I can find in the Bow and do different species live in different areas?

Im pretty sure thats where the original truckload of Browns got dumped into the Bow, when the truck broke down and the driver wanted to save the fish. There are a lot of big browns in that area, as well as rainbows, and Im sure even more species of trout. Nice fish, pic quality doesnt matter when its something you really treasure, its the memories that count!!!!
