Went out for another evening of Bass fishing tonight. Got skunked on that front, but just before I decided to call it quits I tied on a Bill Norman Squarebill. Two casts after, I felt a slight tap and set the hook.Once I saw that skinny belly hit the surface I knew it wasn't a bass.

 

 

 

Never would I have expected a small Cutthroat like that to hit such a large crankbait. Felt bad as both trebles embedded themselves, but he swam off with no issues whatsoever. 

lol its better than going home skunked

Trust me, I wasn't complaining haha. Was definitely great entertainment for a few minutes.

Lol i was fishing for smallmouth in a creek here and caught 2 trout on a strike king 1.0 i was just as amazed

If you have trout that size living in the same body of water as largemouth.......You get my drift

I use them for river trout all the time!

Oh I definitely get your drift! I already have a  7" Savage Gear 3D Trout and an 8"  dead-sticking Rainbow Trout swimbait ready to go. I was going to wait until they stocked the lake with Rainbows but I might just toss one out on my next trip as I have caught bass in this exact same spot...

And judging from where you're located, everyone fishes for trout and salmon so you should have the big girls all to yourself!

That's a beautiful fish!
