Pictures of Trout and Salmon, Page 6
Boasting is an important part of a proper fisherman's website. Look at all the big trout I've caught! Well, okay. Some of them were caught by friends. And family. And some of them weren't caught at all, but now that I know my way around a camera I can take pictures of them anyway.

I took great care to handle the best fish of the night, a 16+ inch rainbow trout, very gently for a picture. As usual, the fish slipped away before the photo. Here's one snapped too early, while I fumbled with the trout in the net. It's really there! Honest!

My dad missed strikes for a couple hours in this demanding small stream before finally catching this pretty brook trout. The stream is pristine and its trout very wild, but the insect population is terrific, so the trout (a mix of browns and brookies) are not naive.

Here my dad drops his largest resident rainbow ever, after a spectacular fight. It's a good 18 inches.

Mean-looking 17-inch rainbow.

This fat-bodied 22" male was my largest brown trout ever at the time. It took a deep nymph and took me 150 yards downstream in a 20-minute fight in strong current.

Lena unceremoniously releases her first self-fly-caught trout. It landed safely in its home pool.
I like the unexpected "oops" pictures so much better than normally posed fish!

Small rainbow from a small stream.


This 15-inch rainbow looks a little strange.

A beautiful arctic grayling.
