| After looking at trout photos, Steel Head Trout is about as close as I can get to figuring it out. | |

Do Browns usally get that big? That sucker was 2 ft long. Or, it it a normal size? Also, I didn't know trout would hit cut bait like that. Buddy, he slamed it hard.

All fish do stupid things at times, and if the place that they have to grow in is and has abundance of ready food yep them suckers will get huge. | |

| Ok i asked the question you asked john about the size of the fish and this is the response i got, remember this is in Minnesota in lake Superior there should be know reason why they wouldn't get this big there.
browns can get BIG! Our state record is 16lbs 12oz w/ a 20.6in girth caught in Lake Superior. I'm sure Lake Michigan is home to even bigger browns! | |
