    I went out to a local stock trout lake looking for…well, trout.

    Came across this 2+ pounder in 30 feet of water.

    Without using the lights on the Marcum camera I need your opinion to ID.

    Is this a brown trout?

    Hey Brian
    A local stock lake ? . . . Are you sure that isn’t a left-over shot from the DNR pond at the state fair? Just kidding – but you should have dangled a worm in front of that monster. Looks like she’s a might over 10 inches but have you ever noticed how the flatheads prefer the brown and yellow bullheads over the black. That’s some “brown gold” there alright.
    Nice shot!

    BK” I didn’t know Trout had wiskers but I know Small Mouth Brown Trout look a little different. So is that the variety in the pic.

    I feel better now.

    I was looking for trout…and anything else I could find in Square Lake the other day. Using the Marcum camera, we located the trout (real trout), sunfish, crappies and a couple BIG bullheads.

    I haven’t fished Square a lot, but a dozen or so times. Never seen a bullhead before, much less one this size.

    If I get back there again, we’ll be taking fishing gear along!

    Thanks Mike

    I am going to keep that one, and with your permission I might even use it in future threads.

    I think he means he’s going to have it printed on his clothing in the future.
