Here are two fish caught by my dad, PTS, for entry in the trout challenge. The "small" fish in the net (with tail in the water) was 22 inches. It took a #18 frostbite midge. The larger fish in the water was 25 inches and caught on a black bugger. Both fish were caught in a "little known" lake.

These cutthroat trout were caught on the Kilchis and Nestucca rivers. The first fish is about 14" and the second one is about 15-16"
Both fish were caught on size 8 Reverse Spiders

Here is a 23.5 inch brown from the "O". Kinda hard to get a good photo when you are fishing by yourself. The basket of my net is 2X deep, and yes the fish is still in the water. It was never removed. Took a size 18 PMD off the top.

Pretty good day for my first trip of the year. Got an 18", 19", 20", and a 23". The basket of my net is 2X deep, and yes the fish is still in the water. It was never removed.
