Cheers Rosco.
That trout went straight into the top 3 fish I have ever caught. I am guessing 10 to 12 pound. I had never fished for, let alone catch a trout before I went to Canada but loved every minute. And they are good chewing too. Got this one on a $25 Walmart rapala spinning combo and a 75c spoon also from Walmart (like a Big W if you have not heard of it).
I would encourage you to get over there if you can make it happen. I am not a fly fisherman as yet but it is on the to do list for sure. They have a great fishery there that is very well managed and there are literally 1000's of lakes, 1000's. If you or anyone else ever wants more info just let me know and I will be happy to share what I know.
