before that fishs` demise, commisioner Bud Selig had him slated in to testify in the MLB steroid scandal hearings next week. Mr. Rainbow trout has publicaly announced that he never knowingly took steroids, and that they must have been slipped to him in the vitamin B12 pellets back at the hatchery when he was just a wee fry.

What a monster. I think the old record was 42.2 lbs out of Alaska. I wonder what this guy was feeding on...macs and browns? :passout: ;)

Wow, looks like a washtub with a tail. Those Canadians are a crafty lot, but who'd have thunk it, a feedlot for trout. Lake Diefenbaker indeed! Probably raised it in a wading pool in his backyard, force feeding it whole chickens and pizza. A sumo trout! How's that for a bald faced jealous rant!

ok, so most fish on the sight were from Pend Oreille lake, where in the world is that lake at?

Speak French eh. That would put it, of course, in Idaho, north of Coure 'de Alene. Really. Locals call it "the Pond", or "Ponderay", north of "Cordalane". Pretty place. Kind of the southern end of the big long natural lakes of which there are hundreds, just accross the border, in real Troutland, BC and Sascachawan (sp?).

Those are most likely triploids or fish that escape from the commercial pens in the lake. You can fish around the pens with anything brown (match the hatch with a Purina lookalike) and catch them.
But it is still alot of fun.
