Is this a brook trout?

I'm a beginner and went to a little creek nearby (I'm in MN) the other day. I was hugely surprised to actually catch a couple of beautiful fish. I did my best to handle them well, but, like I said, I'm pretty new. Releases seemed ok and I hope they made it. Here is a photo of one of them.

The BULLying is over!

Broke my losing streak with Bull trout with this little guy, and now I know they exist! What a beautiful and cool fish! He took a massive streamer and put up a fight of a fish twice his size.

Yellowstone Tiny Meadow Streams

Greetings from Southern Appalachia! I recently took a weeklong trip to Wyoming and found cutthroats in every trickle of water I put a fly into each day. Pros: not getting hung up in canopies of rhododendron as I do back home and very non-selective fish. Cons: endless wind and buffalo patties everywhere.

ElevenMile Canyon

Fished ElevenMile Canyon for six days last week. Fast action on some days with Zebra Midges catching most of the fish (including the big brown that was longer than the opening on my net, putting him right around 20").

Fly Fishing the North Woods

by Rob “Amish” Bolger IN THE SUMMER OF 2004, MY FATHER TOOK MY FAMILY AND ME ON A VACATION TO A SMALL TOWN IN THE NORTH WOODS OF WISCONSIN. Fishing had always been a huge passion of mine and coming from Denver, I was shocked by the vast amount of fishable water the Mid-West contained.

Trout Handling 101: How to Protect Fish During Catch and Release

For many anglers, the goal of trout fishing is simple: catch fish, completely nerd out and admire said fish, release fish. The problem is that trout are surprisingly delicate creatures, and even small mistakes during the catch-and-release process can have lasting consequences.

In 1864, Tasmania imported brown trout for sport. 162 years later, it is building barriers to save a native fish reduced to just 6,000 individuals

For more than a hundred years, introduced brown trout have altered the freshwater ecosystems of Tasmania. In response, conservation teams are constructing artificial barriers to shield the native Swan galaxias fish. Their initiatives focus on maintaining viab…

The Drift: The Greatest Creek In Utah

Of course I can’t tell you where it is. I can, however, tell you everything else. This creek flows out of a glacial valley, draining a large basin of the High Uintas Wilderness Area.

C&R Tips & Gear for Musky & Other Toothy Critters

I'll never forget the first musky I landed on fly. It was an extremely proud moment for me, but it quickly turned into a stressful situation after I got the musky to the boat. I had serious problems removing the deeply hooked fly. The musky had its mouth slammed shut and would not open it more than a couple seconds at a time.

Getting the Big Picture On Brook Trout

By Jason Tucker I recently read an article on brook trout, about what beautiful delicate gems they are. It’s true for a lot of us that brook trout are a small, colorful, feisty reward for a day’s fishing. They are often some of the smallest fish we seek.

Alberta Brown Trout

#16 Jiggy Prince Nymph below a wire worm - fish was released, as always.

Officially my smallest brown yet

Little guy came up and destroyed a #16 tab caddis, I was very surprised he even was able to get the hook. Wasn’t even a fight for my fiberglass 7.5ft 4wt. Caught him in a spring fed creek in upstate NY.

The Best Fly Patterns to Catch a Grand Slam

Catching a true grand slam—a permit, bonefish, and tarpon in a single day—is the epitome of saltwater fly fishing. Many anglers go their whole saltwater careers chasing a slam, traveling to far-off destinations in search of pristine habitat and abundant opportunities. One common destination to check off a grand slam is Belize.

Farm Waters

By Ethan Smith If we want clean water we need to pay farmers to clean it up. What? Yes, let’s pay farmers a premium over the current farm subsidy program to help keep our rivers clean! That sounds crazy right? Well it isn’t, let me explain. The farm bill and its subsidies are currently clean water’s worst enemy.

The efforts to save the Tasmanian fish at 'imminent risk' of extinction

Conservation efforts are showing some signs of success for a tiny, endemic Tasmanian fish. But its main threat is introduced trout, which is prized by anglers.

You May Be Killing Steelhead And Not Even Know It

STEELHEADERS ARE GENERALLY PRETTY SERIOUS ABOUT CATCH-AND-RELEASE, BUT IT'S LIKELY THAT MANY ARE MORTALLY WOUNDING FISH WITHOUT EVER KNOWING IT. There are few species of fish as vulnerable as wild steelhead. These fish are beset on all sides by threats both natural and man-made.

First morning at Cheesman

Hands down the toughest, but also perhaps most striking, place I’ve ever fished. I put in many hours this morning and brought only a single fish to the net. Beautiful clear water, good flows, amazing trout habitat.

Day 2- Abandoned Pond

Caught my first bass on a fly rod! Wound up with 3 total but the 3rd self released

Putting Your Rod Tip In The Water Can Be A Game Changer

When a strong fish runs hard downstream too quickly for you to follow, you find yourself at a disadvantage. With the fish directly downstream, the angle of the hook in the fish's mouth is perilous. Any thrashing or head shaking on the part of the fish can easily result in a long distance release.

The last 30 days have progressed me in my fly fishing journey

No one in my family fly fished so I picked it up around 2014, just as I ended my Army enlistment. It’s been an uphill battle because I couldn’t find a teacher and couldn’t afford the Orvis school. I needed someone to tell me what I was doing wrong or even what to do. I practiced a lot in my yard. Fast forward starting June 12th.

Bucket list location for dad after beating cancer

We are based in Seattle and I’m planning a surprise 5 day fly fishing trip as a family to celebrate his remission at the end of August. Probably will rent a small RV for the four of us. My plan is 3 days fishing with a day of travel on each end. Can’t decide where. Ideally within 8 hours of driving from Seattle.

Trout Book Recommendations

I’m looking to do some reading to learn more about trout (such as their behavior, habitat, and history) if anyone has some good recommendations. Bonus if the material covers fly fishing too but not required.I’m looking for something on the more scientific side rather than a literary piece.

Don’t Be a Sleep at the Wheel When Fishing Egg Patterns

Egg patterns are a staple in my fly fishing and guiding. Stocked trout are suckers for them, but even wild trout will gladly snack on them if you correctly put it in front of them most of the year. Several different egg imitations and sizes are available for fly anglers to fish with.

Caught the king of the creek, now I'm kinda worried

I frequently fish this small creek near my house. On one of the sections I usually find this one large trout that hangs at this particular spot (under a bush (green) in the map). Maybe he's still waiting for that one time I made a spider fall into the water trying to unsnag my fly.

Catch And Release Is It’s Own Reward

By Louis Cahill I SPENT A WEEK LAST YEAR AT THE PENLAND SCHOOL FOR CRAFT, TEACHING A CLASS ON BAMBOO ROD MAKING. I was having dinner in the dining hall one evening with ten or so folks I'd never met. Eating with new folks every night is a sort of tradition at Penland and it's a lot of fun.

Issues Landing Trout from a Kayak

Good morning Trout Experts.I've recently started fishing from a Kayak. It's been amazing being able to get to spots I can't get to from the bank. I've noticed I'm having trouble actually landing fish though and it seems to only be a problem when I'm in the Kayak.I get them up to the boat, and as soon as they get to the surface, they spit the lure.

Caught a hawg

Tons of fish before it but on 7x this thing was a nightmare. I have a YT video of it peeling me down on drag over and over lol. Deceptively strong fish. Beautiful colors though I was very happy to land it. Easy release as well. I caught it on some tiny crappy caddis looking thing I tied, that entire day thats all the fish in the run would touch.

Going to Idaho next week.

Im going to Idaho next week, will be up and down the whole state and Id really love to do some fishing. Im a catch and release kind of guy. I really respect that im not from there or live there and just want to hang out and have a few tight lines and enjoy the scenery. Any recommendations on rig/setups? I honestly feel bad even asking.

First on the Dry Fly

Second ever trout on a fly rod. Lost both my dry fly and the nymph dropper immediately after. Got soaked during the release as I lost my balance in the mud. I think I’m having fun?

Skinny water brown trout from the Wisconsin Driftless area in Pierce County.

Caught and released a nice one last week out of a feeder creek to the Rush River.

Hot take: respect the fish and water if you do catch & release

Here’s a hot take that some people will get upset over…-If you’re clipping your tippet, make sure your tiny piece of plastic doesn’t just fall into the ground or water, make it fall into your pack and toss it in the trash when you’re home. I’ve seen tons of videos of people just snipping the tippet and not disposing it.

Oregon coast trout opener

Couple nice coastal cutthroat for the opener. The airborne fish is a screenshot from video I got of it eating a mayfly before it even touches the water. Super cool. Only got 4 or 5 good fish to net, and quick released that many more. All in all, not a ton of fish but had a great time.

4 Tips For Capturing Better Release Shots of Your Fish

Your best shot at capturing a good photograph of you and your catch, is first having someone along with you that's competent with a camera in their hands. But even a world class photographer will tell you, it's extremely difficult getting those picture perfect photographs, if the person handling the fish has no clue what their doing.

Rainbow trout or costal cutthroat

I went fishing today, and I caught a wild trout on a costal river. I was not able to get a picture of it because I didn't want to keep it out of the water for too long, but I can describe it.It was about 5 inches, and it had red pectoral fins with a white outline.

First bow

I've heard rumors for years that they stock a conservation area (river, falls and pond) with rainbow and brown.

How do you unhook bigger fish fast?

So, I have been trout fishing for quite a while and I release most of the time. I use a plier and rubber net. Usually I net the fish, take it out of water and unhook, take a photo in net and release, and it takes less than half a minute.

New pb built like Brock Lesnar

2.5lb tippet I thought was going to snap at any given point on 3wt rod bent like a candy cane. Unbelievably difficult to net and a long ass fight but she fully recovered for the release.Unreal day

Proud of my son

Took my son out to a pond owned by a ckub we belong to where they stock trout for put and take (literally not allowed to release). He managed to catch his limit for the first time in about a year so I was super proud. He also got a nice black crappie (most are around 5" here).

We stayed at a lodge outside of Hancock NY last weekend, and my daughter, 15yr got her first Rainbow. And was her first catch on a fly rod. Did a good netting and release. #16 Hendricks. Super proud of her.

Well.. im addicted now

Bought my first fly rod a few weeks ago. This afternoon was the most active fishing day I've ever experienced. It was take after take, I had to release a bunch but kept my limit for supper. Haven't caught anything until today and iv been out alot trying to get my casts down.

Trout Deformities

I SPOTTED THIS LITTLE GUY IN A HATCHERY SUPPORTED STREAM IN NORTH CAROLINA AND FISHED TO HIM UNTIL I CAUGHT HIM SO I COULD GET A PHOTO. While not common exactly, deformities like this are not unusual in either hatcheries or in the wild but you seldom see a 'special' fish like this in a wild stream.

Here's an exceptional brown trout I caught and released in central Oregon a few years ago in May. Close to 19lbs... Looking forward to the spring season to kick off in a couple weeks!

And the painting that my mother in law made for me later that year

Dead or Alive

by: Landon Mayer On many Colorado tailwaters, such as the Fryingpan, Blue, or Taylor, a good Mysis pattern is money. With so many Mysis shrimp patterns on the market, finding the best one can be problematic. Many lack the movement and color of the natural crustaceans.

Fly Fishing Alpine Lakes

Fly Fishing on alpine lakes for trout has become one of my favorite ways to spend a day on the water. There's something really special about making long accurate casts to rising trout on the move.

Skagit River Steelhead Season Not Likely To Open

The late winter and early spring catch-and-release season on the famed Skagit River may not happen in 2026, and not because of too few wild steelhead returning to the river. In fact, the numbers support a limited catch-and-release fishery with no retention of wild fish allowed.

Flies That Catch Big Trout, The Truth Might Surprise You
