    You don't want to get yer hand bit. I found out the hard way a few years ago. I was trying to hold one up for a photo and it spun around and bit my hand. Shredded my hand in a split second. I am a lot more careful now.

    My Dad and I used to go up into northern Michigan every fall to fish for Coho. Always had a great time. When we first went, it was still legal to snag them. Talk about a fight when you would snag a big one back by the tail.

    Friend of mine is a guide on the White River in N. Arkansas. He lives on the river, has for many years. His clients caught two Golden Trout last month. First time he's ever heard of any being in the river.

    I'm assuming you mean palomino or albino trout as opposed to actual golden trout which generally only live at very high elevation lakes. People commonly mix the reference up. The palomino/albino are fairly commonly stocked in the east and some southern states. They are cool looking and I'd love to catch one. Utah no longer stocks them, but I wish they did.
