Brown Trout caught near Genessee!!!

[HOSSTONE1]

Exciting day on the river today!

Ended up catching a 22" brown trout in the North Sask. River near Genessee. Fought really hard and I just about s**t myself when it surfaced! Its a little out of its jurisdiction I would say! I phoned the Fish and Feathers and he told me that was only the second one he had heard of being caught around here. I have a video to prove it but am clueless on posting it to the forum.

Anyone else hear of fish like this being caught nearby???

I beleive someone posted last week or so caught one near Edmonton on the other side of town ill see if I can dig it up.

Cool either way, I grew up by Genessee and only ever caught goldeye

Heard of one down stream of fort sask many many moons ago. Very cool tho thanks for sharing

We catch a few every year not far upstream from where the Brazeau runs in. Jetboats are the easiest, but if you have good maps and a pickup you can also reach these special places. Go west of highway 22 roughly west Rimbey highway and explore. Good luck

There was one caught by Forst Saskatchewan this year by a bearded hippie looking dude only a couple weeks ago. Thread on here if you search it. Congrats! Hope to see your video, sorry I can't help lol

Damn hippies!
Hehe the one we caught up by the fort was only maybe 9 inches long though and didn't look in the best of health. Here is the thread.

Thanks for the input guys. If I can figure out how to post the video, I will put it up for all to see! Good to hear the odd one being caught, Sure is a special treat to hook onto this kind of fish. It just happened to be my first brown trout as well!
