those are beautiful looking brooks my friend!!!!
I work at a flyfishing shop, have been for 5 years now... we work on the missouri river... which has amazing blue ribbon rainbow/brown trout fishing
ive actually never seen such healthy brookies before,, they look fat and happy little footballs thats for sure. the average fish below holter damn is 16-22 inches.. which is insane,, its like 1600 fish per acre or some shit too which is amazing
the only difference is im a fly fisher, not dat bate crap... lol only jokes, i do both quite frequenntly depending on situations.
happy fishing, and you always get people like that man, come to montana where the stream regs are free fishing below high water mark... thats real fishing country
