The following was caught on a south-central PA creek that is often stocked but also supports a healthy wild population of both brook and brown trout.
I happen to know threads like this are lots of fun and very popular. I encourage other posters to post their own questionable catches!
The first is absolutely one of the heaviest brookies I have ever caught.
Judging by the coloring, placement, and fins I am almost certain this is a stockie. In this stream, however, I rarely see stockies with the dark grout on their undersides. If I had to bet, though, this isn't even a holdover- straight up massive stockie.
The next is also, in my opinion, clearly a stockie
I'd just like to know if anyone has an explanation on how its tail got so frayed. That's some intense chewing if his brethren are to blame!
Sorry, these are poor examples of borderline fish. I just enjoy pictures! Please post your more questionable fish in this thread!
