Tuna Trout...

Post by fishaholictaz » Sat Feb 13, 2010 7:45 pm

The picture is not the best but doesn't this trout look a little like a tuna up front? The fish was almost 18" and was almost 13" in girth.

Fish, you need to get a better camera so we can see the fish you're trying to show us. Imagination only goes so far.
Not a bash, I'd just like to see the fish you share.

I dont see a tuna or a trout. Lets use some imagination. I see a 2 headed purple dinosaur with red eyes and a severe alcohol induced drooling problem.
More fish please!

Boy thats one fat trout! As for the pic, I've experienced issues resizing pictures, pixels/Kb. It may or may not be a camera issue.

As soon as my taxes come in a new camera is on the list. The head and upper body features of the fish just looked like a tuna to me...

I think you issue with your camera isn't so much the camera... When you're taking pictures in very cold temps and your camera is somewhere warm like next to your body, etc. then you bring it out to take the photo the cold air causes condensation on the camera lens. That's why it looks so foggy... Try leaving your camera out in the cold for a while before taking the pic. The reverse also happens when you bring a camera in from the cold to a warm place. As far as the fish, I don't think it's a troutuna... LOL... It looks like a totally different fish.

or you had it out long enough that the water inside froze and expanded causing it to balloon!

(you said use my imagination)
Success in my book is getting the line in the water... fish are simply a bonus.
