A 28-pound rainbow trout was caught in a northern Idaho river last week—which would have been the largest in state history-- but it had to be released due to state laws protecting the threatened species. 

"It's the biggest rainbow trout I've seen," Steve Liebenthal, the public information specialist from Idaho Fish and Game, told FoxNews.com.

I see those fat bastards over at The Bass Pro shop all the time. Usually in the wild trout are pretty slender because they move so much in rivers and get so little to eat. But at the Bass Pro Shop they look like fat catfish. Not enough moving water and eat like pigs.
