Jason Farnham of Minden, Nev. notes he had a particularly “fantastic” day of fishing at Pyramid Lake, on Friday Dec. 12, 2014 catching not one but two trophy trout. One was and even 10 pounds, and the other was an amazing 20 pounds 9 ounces, measuring 37 inches long and 19.5 in girth.

These were his first fish weighing more than 10 pounds caught from Pyramid. Both were caught using a green Sculpin Fly, 10-pound leader, and a 7 weight fly rod. Both trout were released.
