I put a lake trout in the title, but I this looks like a steelhead to me. My friend caught and kept her because this size fish starts to eat small brookies and rainbows.
I hope you like it.

Here is a 10 pounder example live in the water. It was just in front of us when we were checking the river. That is the very last strech of the river before it turns into lake. 

 

 

My dads 12 pound Huchen Salmon. ( We try to put them back as these grow up to 80-90 pounds. The problem is, everytime we catch one, there is another small brookie or a rainbow trout in the belly..

 

 

 

Thanks for looking. I will be in that area this summer, so I hope to present you 20-30 pound example.

By the looks of that bag he was holding , I don't think that Salmon went back for a swim.

Correct. Once in a blue moon you have to taste one. The city puts 10 000 pcs of trout every year. So there is plenty of fish. They also stock the lake/river with a grayling.

Grayling is delicious pan seared. I had some up in the northern canada. Caught fresh from cold water brook and into cast iron pan. So incredible
Cheers.

There is no steelhead in Bosnia. That is stocked rainbow trout. Rainbow is not native fish in Europe .

Thanks. The country went through war and some rough time in the 1990s. The locals do their best to keep the less fish. The fishing authority officers patrol with a moped and they have binoculars.  

It takes about 30-40 minutes to get the 15 pounder tired before it flips over. The fight is one of a kind. I hope I will get a better video when someone hooks one up.

 Speaking on the nature, there are quite a few safe, drinkable streams - creeks in that area as well. There is trout and grayling in there

,but you got to have a sharp eye to spot them.
