    I only go deep sea fishing you freakin goob. You don't fish for trout in the ocean. But everyone's got a name for something.

    That sure looks like a King Salmon to me, with the black spots. I'd have to see inside the mouth to be sure, though, the mouth is black on Kings.

    On an almost serious note, I think it depends on where you are. We always caught reds and bluefins in S FL. And if you dressed like THAT? You'd sweat to death in less than hour.

    I DO appreciate the art to fishing. I wouldn't know how to catch a trout with anything less than a .243 Winchester. I don't even know where the Hell they live. I just know if they lived anywhere around me they must've seen me coming first.

    Last time I went fishing it was when I went to visit @Jeff in Georgia, and my brother John went for that trip too. Jeff's buddy had a nice pond on his property and let us fish there. I didn't catch a damn thing but like a 2 inch sunny, some sunburn and heat exhaustion. It had to be like 138 degrees out that day, and I generally overheat as it is. Holy crap, I thought I nearly died. Had to go into Jeff's truck and turn the air on. I felt like a patient who was sucking in some pure oxygen, with my face planted against the vent.

    From now on, I have little fishies right here in my air conditioned room. Or I can order the little bastards when I go to a restaurant. Hell, I'd settle for McDonald's filet o fish crap before sitting out in that damn sun again.

    The steelhead here on the Rogue is legendary.
    Nice brown trout fishing at Lake of the Woods in Oregon.

    I used to catch weakies in Long Island Sound and off
    Avalon NJ. Lots of flounder and bluefish, too.

    Some of the best was fishing for Brook Trout on
    the Military Academy grounds in West Point. Ultralight
    gear was always best using black roostertails.

    I have lost my mind. If found, please give it a snack and return it?
