[QUOTE="East TN Bowhunter, post: 5627354, member: 8795"] The one that stands out to me has to be the prettiest fish I have ever caught and also biggest trout, which was a 5lb brown trout. I caught this fish while trolling for trout in a lake in NC. We always have caught a lot of trout in this lake but never any over 18 inches. This one was 26 Inches. We had been trolling for maybe 15 mins first thing after sunrise and had not yet had a bite so we decided to cross the main channel and head towards the other side of the channel. I was trolling probably 20-30ft deep and the bottom was much deeper but there was some fallen trees coming off the bank here and there. As we crossed the channel, I felt a yank on the pole and it was dead weight! I thought for sure I was hung and with the somewhat expensive rigs we were trolling with I did not want to break off so I told my fishing partner to cut off the motor. Once it was off, I kept the line tight and started trying to reel and then I feel something pulling back and at that point I knew I had a big fish. After about 5 minutes I got him in. He is by far the prettiest fish I have ever laid eyes, he had a golden brown tint. One I will never forget! [/QUOTE]
