Which would be.....
 
...the more memorable trip for you?

A) catching a limit of 22-24" trout

or

B) catching a 30" trout

depends on how much the 30 incher weighed

LaAngler 02-22-2010 12:21 AM

You tryin' to 'jack my thread?

A 30" trout.....a "ten pounder" is not one of the choices.

Chances are, if the fish was caught in Big Lake, it would be a PB. It's not like south Texas where 30" trout weigh 6.5 lbs. I'd take the 30"er and take my chances any day.

i would be happy either way....but more memorable 30 incher.... more enjoyable limit of 24 inchers cause that way i get more meat....only get two fillets from 30 incher:eek::shaking:

I agree.

Salty thats a hard choice but now a days Im after a sow. You know the one to put on the wall and piss off the wife.

Ray 02-22-2010 01:05 AM

Salinity is up to 3 now. We might be Bass fishing for the tournament.

OK, here's another question:

If you were fortunate enough to catch a 30" trout, would you:

A) Take a pic and do your best to release it unharmed.
B) Take it straight to the taxidermist.
C) Take an electric knife to it. :cry:

"W" 02-22-2010 08:36 AM

Just load the boat.....

all star rod 02-22-2010 08:38 AM

Depends on how much meat I have in the freezer!:D

I'd rather the 30 incher......take a pic, get weight, lenght, RELEASE and have replica mount made.

Too many coon azzes have taken option C though :rotfl:

longsidelandry 02-22-2010 09:23 AM

A combo of A,B and C. Take some good pics and measurements to get it replica mounted then make some grease pop!!!

I don't get to go fishing but a handful of times a year so EVERY legal fish I catch is staying in the boat. Sorry if you don't like it...

LaAngler 02-22-2010 10:20 AM

If I am going to do a mount, I would do a skin mount.

I think my minimum for a skin mount would be 9 pounds no matter what length.


The way I look at it, killing/cleaning a 8 lb plus trout is no different from doing it with a largemouth.

speck-chaser 02-22-2010 10:39 AM

I would have to lean towards the 30"er. But, either scenario would be great since Ive never done either. 25 - 24"-25" would be a blast. (All on topwater)
