Finally caught a speckle

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

After seeing NN's Speck, I'm more convinced the other was indeed a Rainbow :!:

Wow Rico, that's a great observation, I thought there was no difference at all between the head of a Speck and the head of a Splake. Would you elaborate on the difference please? I would need to see the tail to tell you that you are mistaken!
Cheers,

You could be right T.S. but since I see no spots at all so my guess is rainbow and without seeing the tail it 's even a tougher call and I won't take that bet but by the lifting I know these are ling . LOL :D

Perhaps since it sounds like Joe (Jale6666) recommended the lake, maybe he could tell us what Trout are supposedly in the lake :!:

That could help with identity....What say you Joe :?: :lol:

This lake has been only ever stocked with speckles. I have never heard of anything else coming out of it.

I thin that the sun shining on the fish is what is making the coloring so hard to distinguish.

Carlco, What did the tail look like if you can remember

I still consider the fish to be a stocked speckle. If it was a naturally producing lake I would have my doubts, but since these are government raised fish ya never know what they are doing to them.

I was commenting on the fact it was not a Rainbow. I was not reffering to a splake which I also doubt it is.
