Whoah! 😧
Um.... minnows... compared to that! 😧
They are utterly awesome!
We only have a couple of good lakes, we call reservoirs, here. And just 2 rivers which are really streams. They are crazy big fish there! Off the charts for us here. My best trout which here people see and go "whoah" are minnows to those. I can only wish they grew that big here, but alas, my best is as best as they get.
Two thumbs up to those thumpers 👍👍
My best is an 11 lb brown trout. I just tried to hunt the pic up but these are up to that my best..
7lb, guess as my scales bottomed out, wild trout from a lake that is known as having here in OZ possibly the last of the British wild released breeding stock here.
A nice rainbow 6 lb, yeah another minnow but here a class catch.
Another scale bottom outer, guess to be honest dont know 6 maybe 7!?
I just guess as I go by how much they bottom out time wise. Another.
But where I am they are not common. I use soft plastics and work them different ways.
I fish too for English Perch, we call them Redfin. Best we get is 5lb max. Caught a few that size, ill try n hunt up some pics. But love our native Yellowbelly. Great eating.
Heres one around 4 lb. Bigger are too fatty. Best to eat up to 5lb.
