And before you all freak out that I kept these, the place I caught these has one of the most healthy brown trout population in the world. these were about 7 lb and that’s not very rare to find here. They were caught with a rapala F-9 in one of the big lakes in the Strömsvattudal water system. Specimens of up to 35lb is frequently reported at the many lakes and ofc in vattudalen it self. Its rarer to catch smaller ones than ones this size. And that is the complete truth. This summer I have caught over 15 4+ lb brown trout, so there is no shortage of them at all. For anyone questioning this, please look up ” bågedeöring ” that’s the name of this large trout population.
Sorry for writing a lecture, I just don’t want a ton of hate for being honest. I know that Reddit is salty and in a trout group that is going to be amped to the max.
