UK: caught a 34 pound rainbow trout



When angler Michael Mitchell hooked into his record rainbow trout recently from Loch Earn, located in Perthshire, Great Britain (UK), he immediately knew it was a big fish. 

After more than 15minute battle he finally got the big fish to shore. However, rainbow trout don’t exist naturally in the lake. As a matter of fact, this fish is believed to have escaped a trout farm connected to the lake he was fishing.




With 38 inches in total length and a girth of 26 inches; the previous Britain record was just over 34 pounds. Mitchell’s fish should break that record easily
