Hello John;

I think you should piece together a picture to sell your Indian reel with Divine sitting on a Indian Motorcycle and Jim Weigner riding shotgun holding the Indian reel mounted on a Split bamboo flyrod reeling in a 12 pound trout.

Good morning to my "Pals"

You guys are brutal! And I thought us Corvette folks stuck together.

Hello back there Mike:

Well OK. If you like Divine I won't hold that against you.

Take care my friend, and keep those Penns polished.

Jim

P.S. I do like the part about the 12 lb. trout though!

Well, I do not like or dis-like Divine. She, Him or whatever lives in a different zone than I do.

As for 12 pound trout, Do they get that big? I never caught a trout in my life, unless you count a Sea Trout.

Do trout get that big?

Good morning Mike:

Yes indeed. Of the most common types, brook trout (often called eastern brook trout) can reach 15 lbs., but only where the food source is plentiful.

Rainbow trout can reach 25 lbs. Steelhead, which are actually rainbows that migrate from their home stream and do go out to sea...or into the Great Lakes and then return to their home stream to spawn, can reach 30 lbs. or more. They are also great fighters, and very fast and often leap many times when hooked.

Brown trout, often called German Browns (they originally came here from Europe) can grow to 40 lbs. They are often one of the most wary of trout, and even where the food source is modest, grow to considerable size by scarfing up on smaller fish.

Lake trout are the largest and can reach 50 lbs. They are found mostly in very deep water, such as the Great Lakes, and other large and deep lakes. As mentioned, much depends on the food source: the quantity and quality. In small creeks and many high mountain lakes the trout are often much smaller than average as their food source is modest.

Most of the trout which I have caught are measured in inches; not pounds. And I suspect that for most trout fishermen (and fisherladies) this is most often the case. Of course using light tackle makes it enjoyable, and this really is what it's all about.

Hey Elder:

We don't need no stinkin room. I've got my room out here, and Mike has his room back there (unless his wife put him outside with the dog).

And go back to work.
