Seen gill plates like that on some stocked brookies down this way too, at Butcher Lake. They sure don't compare in size though, those are some nice fish you got there!

Those fish have been there for almost 100 years and the lake hasn't been stocked since the 30's

Default Nice Photos David

Beautiful pics, I never get tired of those mountains! Nice looking fish too! And you're so right about fishing being so much more than catching fish!!
