    Might want to add size of the fish to the posts. I'm not a fisherman and know barely anything about fishing.....other than throwing a line out and waiting for the cork to sink :rofl:

    If you want monster sized fish best to head North a state.

    Not sure what kind of fish but you're probably correct. Caught in Barr Lake and tool the pic for identification purposes. Probably using a trout spinning lure and likely just snagged him if memory serves me. I think this is the ONLY fish I've caught is Barr Lake and it doesn't even count. :cool::D

    Some trout out of Hanhs Peak Reservoir. Probably the biggest fish I've caught in Colorado ever. :anonymous:

    I was thinking Lake Trout but can't see fins to be for sure, if those are teeth in pic probably a Walleye.

    My Lifetime Catch #'s:
    Walleye= 1 (Miracle mile in WY)
    Lake Trout= 0 But on my list of fish I want to catch someday.

    I 'think' it's one Rainbow and two "lake" trout.
