Wes Hamlet, Coeur d'Alene, Idaho and his world record Kamloops Rainbow trout. It was caught on Nov. 25, 1947, 60 years ago this month and is still the world record for a fresh water catch. This photo was taken by Jack Rottier who I believe was a photographer for the US Forest Service at the time. It was caught on a Martin plug # 5KS-11, silver scale. It was 40.5" long, had a 28" girth, and weighed 37 pounds.
