Unfortunately I blanked for the day. Missed all the takes. These boys were just sipping in the surface. My buddy got them    |

first one was 3.5lb and the second shy of 5lbs. Neither were released. My kiwi buddy insists on taking 2 for the pot and releasing the rest. It's his right to kill them and they don't go to waste. Personally I only dispatch them if they are badly hooked or if someone asks me for them for eating. The kill limit here is 2 per any national fish and game region per day. So it's not a big loss to whack one. Especially from a lake the size of Loch Lomond!

Very nice brownies.
Easy to tell a live trout rom a dead one. Look at the eyes, live fish always look down, dead fish, the eyes are level.
