But we must agree that catching 4in brook trout are indeed stream bred. I'm just hoping that one of those 4in guys might grow to perhaps 15in. That river can accomplish that.Brk Trthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12677442640158367831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7050365015235775568.post-12712347206669797212013-08-15T15:19:29.190-04:002013-08-15T15:19:29.190-04:00That was a beautiful brook trout!

Since CT stocks the Farmington every year with about 2,000 adult brook trout from Goodwin Dam to lower Collinsville, it's hard to call the larger ones wild with any certainty. They generally don't stock brookies in the Upper TMA, but fish always distribute throughout the river anyway, especially in high water. I certainly hope the big brookies are wild, but given the numbers I've landed this year, I don't think so. Great fish!
