I call B. S you tell me
« on: August 20, 2012, 09:12:15 PM »
So I frequently talk hunting and fishing with some co workers and today I was talking to one about the salmon run..
He informed me that this weekend he caught a 22 lb. trout out of lake cushman.. I don't really trout fish but does that lake hold a 22 pound trout?
If its brown knock it down

So I frequently talk hunting and fishing with some co workers and today I was talking to one about the salmon run..
He informed me that this weekend he caught a 2.2 lb. trout out of lake cushman.. I don't really trout fish but does that lake hold a 2.2 pound trout?

I made it believable.  See?

Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.”

Lake Cushman has a population of Lake Trout so his story is very possible.

I don't know about the lake trout, but there are some very large Dolly Varden.  It also holds land/dam locked Chinook that are that size and larger.  If he sucks at identifying fish, he may have caught a king and thought it was something else.....................Or he could just be full of sh!t.  :dunno:

Does he have pics?  A fish that big I would be taking pictures and posting them everywhere.

Considering the record came from rufus and weighed 25lbs 11oz, I'd say he's full of poop. There are a lot of people who have no idea how to judge weight on a fish. There are also a lot of people who are just plain liars. :chuckle:

Pics or it didn't happen...

I don't see a record for "Brook Trout," but based on what I'm seeing, that would be one BIG Brook Trout.

:yeah:  It was almost believable when I thought it was a lake trout (35.5 lbs, Lake Chelan), but brook trout state record is 9 lbs.

Washington state record Lake trout is 35 lb 7 oz. out of Lake Chelan.

World record is 102 lbs. out out of Canada, 1961 I think, caught in a gill net.

Lake trout get huge.

Lake Cushman has bull trout which are slightly different than lake trout and can be easily confused with brook trout. . . .a study in the lake in 1996 handled 283 bull trout which ranged in length from 10 - 32 inches.  32 inches is a very large trout, as you all know.  That's not to say that the 22 lb "fish story" is true. . . . . . but Lake Cushman, and the river upstream, do hold some very large fish.

Dollies and brookies look a lot the same. But a 22 pound dolly is still pushing it. The biggest dolly that I have heard of was 15 lbs. and that was back in the day out of a river when there would be salmon everywhere.

State record for Dolly is only 10.94, so yeah, 22# would be pushing it a bit!!
