Thought the trout was gunna be just average stocked trout ...:banghead:banghead
They been just destroying me this week in the high alpine lake, a STUPID big monster rainbow took this big sucker right at my feet on the bank this morning :yikes
Ding Dong me....with my ultralight is getting pounded up here at 8000 feet above sea level .......rotfl
Note teeth marks on the sucker btw ...
KABOOM is for sure the word...
Don't you hate it when things are better than you planned. KABOOM
Looks you going to need a bigger net ! LOL !
Go to my YouTube channel and hear that drag screaming....lol
Kaboom X 3!
Awesomeness
Nice! Hopefully some cooler temps as well!
Even if you didn’t get to hold him, seeing the take gets the blood flowing. Glad you’re having fun, and you’re getting schooled some too.
That'll learn you:yikesrotflrotflrotfl
Used to live in Colorado Springs. Go get ya some brookies!! Best eating trout in my opinion and at 8k feet you can find em. Love rainbows too. Thanks for the report, wishing you many kabooms. Super Duper lure in gold or silver - smallest size have been very productive for me. Have fun!!

That must of been a huge Rainbow to take that fish ! I wish you could've landed it. I've always been told by Guides that the Brown's are the meat eaters, but not so in this case .
Bow must have been huge to take that sucker. Ultralight might not be the best choice when they are eating big suckers. Still a thrill even to have it on for a little bit. Didn't know you had a you tube channel, or was that a joke? If it's true how do I find the video?

I can identify fish really well and there is NO doubt a huge green trout shaped fish with a speckled back and a bright red stripe down its side with…
jaws like that is a for sure big male rainbow :highfive
I knew big rainbows would take down other fish , just didn’t know they would chase down a huge sucker and hammer itQuote:

A Mepps spinner with a tiny natural color minnow body was deadly stuffQuote:

Trout can get really aggressive at sunset and have had them eat my float off the top many times and have it under for quite awhile before it pops up. I used to set the hook when they do that but foul hooked a couple so I just wait for them to spit it. I guess my orange and yellow Thill floats look like power bait, need to find a way to put a hook in the float and still be able to cast it.
thata boy
Great adventures Ketchn. Thanks for the ride.
my wife just went into lost her mind in love with that place , she had a few valid points , it crawled in deer and wildlife beyond a few and the temps. were just perfect ...nice place for sure in the late summer ....:highfiveQuote:
