October 2013 SOTM Entry: CO Lake Trout

From the inbox:

Chum-

I was standing on a cliff face about 10 feet off the water, casting into about 40 ft of water.  Cast it straight our and let it sink to the bottom.  Two strips and this guy laid on it.  The hardest part was scrambling down the cliff face and finding some where to land this thing without going in the water or killing myself.  It took about 15 minutes to land it on a 7wt with 12lb flouro as tippet.  Put the camera on self timer again and snapper some photos before letting this fish go.  I didn't take any measurements.  But the thing nearly wrenched my wrist right off my arm when I let it go.  It's unbelievable the power these fish have.  I quit fishing after I released it.  I haven't seen or heard of too many people catching these fish on the fly.  Caught on Lake X in CO.
