I've been posting about the husky rainbows in central WA, but western WA also has some husky rainbows. Check out this husky rainbow hooked today on a western WA lake (a general regulation lake):
It was 21 inches long (based on my Measure Net) and 5.25 pounds (based on my handheld scale). It had nothing in its stomach. It took a BH Dark Olive Rabbit Fur Leech that I was casting and stripping about 6 feet below the water surface in 12 feet of water. It was a very good fighter and jumper.
