Message: <blockquote data-quote="dean nelson" data-source="post: 112720" data-attributes="member: 1305">No what i caught were either the WV or lighting. I caught one of the true Goldens when I was 10 or so out on vacation. We have a couple lakes near where I lived that had them but they are such a bitch to get to i never went back after them. The true golden trout are generally in small little lakes up near or above timber line and normally a few mile hike back into so not a fish people get by chance but instead as the main reason your up there. The one I did catch as a kid came from this lake up at 11,000 which my cousin seemed surprised about so not sure if it's normally stocked with them or not. Tell you one thing it is fun to watch them more or less fire bomb the fish out of an airplane to stock them! You see the spray of water as the tank opens then a couple seconds later you see them hit the water.[ATTACH]6436[/ATTACH]- - - Updated - - -The one thing I would love to know is if the lighting trout story is true. Did they really have an odd colored one that they fostered or did the have a WV fish that they claimed they just happend apon but in reality shipped in for the purpose of getting in on the action. Since MT Lassen is privet I could totally see them stealing a few.</blockquote>
