Daddy of Them All! Salt Lake angler nets huge Blackfoot trout
Phil Adderly of Salt Lake City displayed a massive native trout caught on the Blackfoot reservoir on Sunday June 16. Weighing 23 pounds 9 ounces and measuring 36 inches long with 18 inches in girth, the fish was taken on a daredevil lure while trolling. It likely tops local records but not national records, as an encyclopedia notes a 41-pound cutthroat caught in 1947.
