Mountain Brook Trout

[LHR]

Yesterday I was able to get on the Mtn for some ice fishing. I had a great day catching 34 of these beauties!

My heart be still. Brookies are my favorite.

I remember backpacking for elk just north of Steamboat. We couldn't carry enough supplies for 5 days of hunting so we brought a fishing pole. I dont think the brookies we fished ever saw a fisherman. Fun to catch, beautiful, and excellent eating.

Good for you LHR

Beautiful trout. I miss the trout streams back in Connecticut.

Those are beauties - great color!

Absolutely beautiful- only trout we basically get here in IA are stocked trout, but if they are in the stream long enough they will get those colors. Trout fishing is probably a month away for me.

Very Nice!

I used to catch them in streams in South Dakota. Don't know if stocked or not, but great eating fish! Great memories for a Virginia country boy...

I fished them in SD also. Right near I-90 and the Wyoming border. Sand Creek.

Beautiful trout, thanks for the pics & sharing your experience with us all. I got turned on to trout fishing in my late 20's. I trout fished in Md. Pa Va Wva & Ny. I got 2 citations for big Rainbows I caught in Pa & I wish I'd have weighed the huge Brown Trout I caught in the Salmon River in Ny. I fell in love with freshwater finesse fishing. I did some ice fishing too. I moved to Fl 8yrs ago & havent wet a line since I got here. I started fishing as soon as I could hold a pole & really really miss it. I liked gettin done fishing & fileting them up breading & fryin them & some home fried taters N onions & a lil Jalapeno with some cold beer.

My favorite fish. Congrats.

This year I’m Colorado since my nonresident elk license will include a fishing license I plan to take a day and hopefully catch some trout.
