Here's a rainbow my wife Yvonne caught and released while fly fishing at Twin Lakes, Mammoth last summer from her float tube.

I caught it on finger mullet. 

It was 48" long and probably in the neighborhood of 55-65lbs.

2019 Trip.  Things got exciting when the sharks snacked on speckled trout floating on the stringer 5 ft away.

I guess your knott supposed to let em touch touch the grass. But these puppies are slick and wiggle ... I don’t know how you guys get the photos you do get.

Good topic Bob.

Can't say I ever caught this specific fish but I have caught Greenback Cutts, Colorado native fish.
