Big Rainbow.
#1
Sorry guys,

I can't tell you what lake this bruiser came from, but my buddy Dan caught this BEAUTIFUL rainbow today. We got that last 2.5 minutes or so on video. I'll upload it in a few days. This fish was 29 inches long with 19.5 inches girth. [url "http://trailstotrout.com/calculator.html"]http://trailstotrout.com/calculator.html[/url] calculates this fish to be 13.75 lbs.

Here's the primer.
Tight lines Guys!

Sorry, the picture didn't upload the first time. Hopefully it's there now. [Smile]

It's nice being in front of the camera for once, instead of behind it. Thanks for being behind the camera Matt.

Heh, if I hook one of those with my 6" hole you better believe I'm going to be yelling for anyone nearby to come drill a second hole next to the first one. Those fish are huge.

great fish guys. How many holes did you have to get it through? Did you make two holes next to each other? Or just the one 10 in was good enough?
