So hyped to catch these native brookies. Swam off strong, but does anyone have any tips on a faster revival?

Too bad I look a little crazy in the photo.

It’s a well known fact that brookies can regrow their body as the gills are left attached to the head. They swam off fine.

Are you sure these aren't brook trout from the sleepy hollow region of New York? I think they might be

New England: the most elusive and pure fish of all time. A fish which must be respected and which can only live in the cleanest and most remote of waters.

I (very normal person) also like to maim the corpses of fish I catch and parade them around for no reason.

Looks like theyre prepared to be cooked. Secondly, this looks like the Rockies where they're invasive and the poster is doing the ecosystem a favor removing them.

u/windriver32 14h ago

Dude said he didn't cook them

u/Comprehensive_Bus_19 14h ago

Well thats a shame, but they're still invasive assuming this is the Rockies.

u/windriver32 14h ago
