Been way too long since my last trip. (Even with the size of those fish, I find it hard to find the motivation to make the extra time to drive that far). Those fish are legendary.
Everything it’s advertised as...no bull.
What was the lightest rod you used?
Thank for the post.

What type flies do you use for 16# trout? Big streamers?

standard pyramid lake flies, ended up catching the big one on a black/red boobie fly behind a larger streamer.

Its well worth the drive especially if you can really spend a few quality days up there. I brought a 6 wt with floating line, 8 wt with a sink tip setup, and a 10wt with a full sink 500 grain line.

ended up using the 10wt the entire trip just because it got down fast and i could really cut into the wind on my casts.
