My nephew had to take his girl friend back home early this morning and so I took a shower and he came back around 1030, I got all the stuff ready, we made a stop at a store along the way for some supplies. Good thing i picked up the Colorado fishing booklet! My nephew caught one hell of a fish we've never seen before in this lake and a few casts later, i reeled in another one, only a good deal skinnier.
The 2 fish we caught are called Splake, its a cross between a Brook trout and a lake trout. They are freakin fun to catch because they are fighters.
We caught 5 at one spot and then had to move to the dam area due to the wind. I caught one trout and my nephew caught the other 2 we needed for our limit. He beat me 6-2 the little bastard! It was a great time though, I don't care who catches what, just as long as we get to take something home to cook and boy do they smell good right now!
And yes, They were very yummy LOL. Took a break to taste them and the Splake are very soft and do not have a heavy fish smell or flavor to them.
