Angler Story of the Week: World’s Tallest Cutthroat Trout

A Note from Tanner (@tanner_fly_fishing):

“On the search for a big alpine cutthroat I’ve come across a few spots that I would consider true hidden gems. When I stumbled across this lake I was quickly losing hope of it being one of these hidden gems as I had not seen any fish after walking around the lake twice. But than I saw one of the biggest Colorado River Cutthroat I have ever seen cruising a deep ledge. I tossed a leech at it and without hesitation it came up and crushed it. Sometimes these alpine gems are hidden in plain sight, to find them you just have to be consistent and not give up hope!”
