jaybez Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 (edited) Went to a spot I saw on Saturday afternoon and couldn't fish then so went out for a fish this afternoon. Nearly took an impromptu swim a few casts in. Cast to the top of the pool under the bridge I parked at. Said to my mate, would love to catch a fish and two seconds later get a hit. Nice early 40s rainbow landed. Two more smaller fish followed from the next pool up but had to leave as soon as I arrived, was needed at home. Oh well can't complain about 3 trout in 10-15 minutes of proper fishing. All taken on a copper gold spinner.

jaybez Posted October 20, 2023 Author Share Posted October 20, 2023 (edited) Thanks Bessel, I wonder if it was a hybrid? Definitely not a brown only, look at the pink on its cheek. Heaps of people thought that it was a brown also. Edited October 20, 2023 by jaybez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a brown I caught there today, definitely no pink on the cheek there. Caught about six other rainbows, kept the largest at 30 cm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R E G I C Y C L E Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 Definitely a rainbow, just quite spotty. Nice fish! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bessell1955 Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Oh, OK so the Trout I commented upon is not a Brown but is in fact a Rainbow? Do the interbreed? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do the interbreed? Yeah that's what I reckon. You're not the only one who thought it was a brown though. All my brothers thought so too. I'm wondering if they interbreed.

Pickles Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 (edited) Great report @jaybez, were the copper gold spinners Celta’s or other brand and did you try other colours.? What weight rod / reel / line were you fishing ? Thanks for sharing. Edited October 28, 2023 by Pickles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
