What does fishing from shore have to do with size of fish? So were you two trolling?
Oh, and the warning was quite awhile ago. Found this so looks like no worries
"The report said that rainbows caught in American Fork Creek and on Tibble Fork Reservoir are unaffected by the warning because most stocked rainbows don't spend enough time in the water to become affected."
Not sure about the Brown Trout though.
"Fillet samples of Brown Trout from below the Tibble Fork Reservoir had mercury levels ranging
from 0.040-0.078 mg/kg for an average of 0.055 mg/kg. Brown Trout above the Tibble Fork
Reservoir had mercury levels ranging from 0.050-0.068 mg/kg for an average of 0.059 mg/kg."
