Default Picked up my trout mount









I got a call last night saying my trout was done, the taxi said I could pick it up this morning. I think he did a great job! It's a 10lb 26.5" Brown trout, and my largest fish to date.

Its definately a Brown, thats just a reflection your seeing, he actually has a lot of silver for a Brown trout, which is common for the reservoir we fish. Heres another pic from a fish I got last year for comparison.

Woops, I misread what you wrote. Yourright he doesn't have a lot of yellow, but that silvery color is more common than the typical brown/yellow color found elsewhere.
