Here's a story that matters. It's a story about a trout.
Yup. Those 16 - 18 inchers in Bull Lake were caught on a 4 weight. And one was caught by a large Labrador Retriever. He dropped it at my feet and I returned it to the water along with the rest of them - not a mark on it.Casa Escarlata Robles Too said:Also the East fork of the Carson has them.
Down stream from the Deadmans bridge on hwy 89
just before Markleyville has them but catch/release.
Great fish to have on a 4w fly rod.

Why do they want to pollute good waters with factory fish? To help understand my view, here is a good read -
