Your biggest park fish
 

I am curious to see what others have caught in the park. I think we could all use a little more fish ****. Post up a pic of your best park-caught rainbow, brown, and brookie. I am relatively new to the game up there, but here are my largest two brookies, caught about a year apart in the same stream.

I have yet to even catch a brown in the park, and I've only caught a couple of rainbows, so my sample size isn't large there.

Those are great fish. I always wonder why the same waters produce larger than average fish. If you were going to paint a picture of a brookie it would be that first one. Awesome colors.
By the way should you be wearing a fine time piece like an Omega Fishing.:biggrin: Nice fish and nice watch.

Thanks. I should be ok unless there are some 1000ft deep plunge pools. :p

Although, I know it can take the beating, that's why I like them. Looks great with a suit, but can equally take a beating on headwater streams!

Bait...

I have never really caught anything too big in GSMNP, but I mostly fish in Pisgah.

My biggest GSMNP brook, 4/29/12, sorry, I don't have a live pic.

No brookies and these two (like most of my fish) were caught right by the road. ;)

Most impressive, David. I've had rises from fish near this size, but can never seal the deal.
