Got a chance to fish it from shore in the mid 90's just by a roadside pullout near where 11 & 17 highways met. I still remember it today. Landed 4 brookies dry fly all in the 19-20 inch range and chunky. Still my best brookies!

When I was a teenager I was camping with my family at Weber Lake in the California Sierra Mountains. The lake was a private lake at that time. This would be in the late 1960's. I caught a 3 1/2 pound Brook Trout trolling with spinner blades and night crawler. That is still my biggest brook trout. A few days later I caught a 7 1/2 Brown trolling a flat fish in the evening. I miss those days with my family camping.

I hope these people understand how special their fish are. I fish for native brookies in the white mountains during the summer. Average catch is probably 4-6” and a “trophy fish” is 12”. Granted, we’re fishing in brooks that you could hop across with little effort but still…seeing brook trout of this magnitude is mind blowing for a typical native brookie hunter like me.

Great video.. I actually broke this record when I lived in Argentina. The problem was I couldn't get the fish to a scale in time and it dried out a few ounces. I was around 18 years old and the catch is written in Nick Karas' book entitled "Brook Trout"... It was a wonderful memory, and the trout weighed in at just under the record when we finally got it weighed.. After I got it mounted, It resided in the guiness book of world records in Gatlinburg TN for many years. It now is with my Dad in Virginia and I have a copy of it on my living room wall. The fish is a testamony to my dad who has fished almost exclusively for brookies since he was a boy.. perhaps one of the most accomplished fishermen the world has ever known.. Love you Dad! Thanks for the memories!

Well, Sue, in retrospect, I guess I probably didn't actually break the record... Dr. Cook's weighed in at something like 14 1/2lbs.. mine when it got weighed was 12.2 It took us at least 2 days to get it to the scales. I'm sure that it lost at least a half a pound... so it still wouldn't have broken the record... my apologies.. but it was still a crazy cool catch!

What a truly wonderful trip back through history. As an Australian, we don't get to fish for many of the North American/ Canadian species obviously and the size of our Rainbows and Brown Trout are nothing by comparison. The biggest Trout probably are to be found in Tasmania, cold oxygen rich waters over there are highly conducive to large fish, but here in my neck of the world. W.A. we just don't get monster Trout, so it was a real pleasure to watch this. Thank you for sharing.

A larger brook tout may have been caught in Labrador. Is weight was estimated at 17 pounds. It was released. The world record Nipigon fish was split itwo and both halves mounted. I measured one of the halves before it was stolen. My memory is a bit foggy now but I believe it was from 36 to 38 inches long. It was not caught on a fly like Field and Stream Magazine claimed. It was caught on a fresh water sculpin not a fly. I interviewed the guide for the angler who caught it when it was caught.

There's loads of huge specks in this class that were caught by loggers in the 50's while they were logging out the American chestnut killed by the blight. All since gone with the ignorant introduction of rainbows and browns to compliment the Chinese chestnut blight.

I caught some of the tiny rainbows at Cade’s cove about 30 years ago in the park 6 inches fully mature. I read that logging in the late 1880 damage the creeks causing silting and temp increase so then they started stocking rainbows to replace the lost brook trout. Here in southwestern Ontario most of our former brook trout creek have been damaged from clear cutting and denuded channelized creeks urbanization run to many nutrients from lawns ,golf courses, industrial agricultural, and municipal spraying of ditches along most roadsides with herbicides . Also most of the head waters of our rivers are classified as municipal drains and a cut channelized . These tiny creeks or creeklets are vital for the survival of tiny young brook trout very little concern over any of this it not Co2.

This video is great but just makes me sad. The Pine Portage dam only produces about 130MW. That's about enough for 80k homes. One medium size town. The rough equivalent of about 50-65 typical utility-scale wind turbines. I know Canada loves its hydropower, and it's great that it's CO2-free. But damn if a lot of incredible places and fisheries have been just wrecked by it. That's a rough trade off, and will continue to look worse and worse as the cost of solar and wind continue to come down. You'd love to at least see fish ladders or some other means of making the dams passable, but even with that you don't guarantee anything considering the fish may not thrive in the reservoirs or successfully swim up them. The US is obviously guilty of this as well, but there have been a significant number of dam removals (usually at the time of of license renewal, because companies decide it's cheaper to pull it than to bring it up to current standards). And the US has pretty much gotten out of the business of building new massive dams. Hopefully going forward, Canada power producers can find ways to move to other energy sources that aren't so hard on these fishing and scenic resources.

I would cost money but some of the river water above the dam could be opened up inland to allow a sizeable artificial river (not cheesy fish ladder ) to flow around the dam it could also be part of an emergency spill way in case of flooding . The artificial river granted would not be as good as dam removal but would allow fish to Lake Superior to lake Nipigon un impeded .

meze maccalman lol you got me backwards. these dams do very little in damaging the populations of fish its not the dams that have made the fish small like this would have you believe. the reason the fish are small is because the fishing pressure. there used to be huge fish all over the east coast and South but no one wants to put back there trophy so they rarely get above a certain size before being caught. if you go to the west coast the fishing culture is much different and there are larger fish. if anything these dams should increase there size by creating milder climates with more food. also what would the power generated by those dams be replaced with? only real option is Cole which is much more destructive over all. finally I'll be voting bernie, tulsi, or tunder depending on who runs.

the columbia river has 7 dams or something like that.. all fish moving past the dams have to been trucked across each one in shipping containers .. often times poor returns are the result of the fish not living through this... all the dams that have been removed in washington so far have had an almost instant rebound in fish health and numbers... replace them with wind mills... 1 of the windmills in eastern washington will power an average of 500 houses.

Hi Aaron, thanks for your comment. I can guarantee this fish was released after it was placed in the live well to be tagged. I should have shown the release in hindsight. Thanks again.. Mark Melnyk

My buddy just kept a few sizable Brooks. It all depends. We were fishing a creek never gets fished so it's okay to harvest them. I smell a soyboy

Great video. I just can't accept the world record. Here in Finland fishermen have caught dozens of brown trouts larger than that on this century only - not mention 90's or 80's. Our current record is 10,15kg (year 2001) and here's an example of 8,7kg trout from couple years ago (in Finnish unfortunatelly): www.ess.fi/uutiset/paijathame/art2404001
