Bear Lake 2-12-22

Good looking fish, but that's a lake trout, not a cutthroat. Thanks for the report!

You are correct!  I knew it was a lake trout, but I had a "senior moment" when I typed cutthroat.

I was going to say a 28" cutthroat would be a new state record...

Nope.  The Utah state record, for catch and release Bear Lake Cutthroat, is 31" (caught on 1/17/21, at Bear Lake).  Here is a picture of the state record.

We went to Idaho at Chesterfield and had a rough day...

I can't even consider fishing anywhere else when Bear Lake is frozen and calling my name.
