Dainer, where did you catch the tiger trout? Any pictures?

 

[JCS]

mdunc-I didnt see any golden trout on your list. I could point you in the right direction for those if you want.

 

[npaden]

That bullet list would get really long for me, but not so long for the hook list. I did get to go on one deep sea fishing trip and that was really amazing. I was totally amazed when we were "trolling" at a fast enough clip that we could have been pulling a water skier, and even more amazed when we actually caught something going that speed!

Current #1 wish list:
Mountain Goat.

There are a few other items on there, but much less of a priority.
Oryx, Aoudad, Yukon Moose, of course a Bighorn Sheep if I ever drew a tag.

JCS, that would be great. I'd love to get into a few of them.

Bambi, how was the sandhill crane? I've heard they're pretty tasty.

Similar to bald eagle...

tasted like a game bird, kind of tough, kind of gamey. They all kind of taste the same to me, excpet for sage hen... those things are nasty.

 

[dainer]

I caught a couple tiger trout at the Ruby Marshes in Nevada several years ago. I have a picture at my parents house somewhere, I'll see if I can round one up and scan it. They weren't huge....15-20 inches. Very beautiful fish.
