So I was at Lake Centenial in Howard County fishing for Rainbow Trout, I caught 2 on Thursday Feb. 03 2012 This was before they stocked. I caught them on the powerbait. The weird thing was the when I caught the fish it hung up on some rocks I got it free and landed it and it started spewing eggs on me. I've had this happend before, I crealed her and when I got home I started cleaning them when to my suprise the female rainbow had two large plastic bass lures same paterern one was green and the other was blue. The more remarkable thing was there was also a few snails and a large sickle shaped saltwater hook. The saltwater hook was attached to 8# green trileene and had one of the two lures threaded. The bass lures were like 4 inches and about the size of a penny I think yamatzo makes them. Anyway I was amazed at the fact that she had like 8inches plus a huge hook in her and she still managed to fight me for 10 minutes it was about a 2-3 pound fish give or take the eggs. I took a picture of the contents which included my hooks the snails and the bass lures. I don't know if its something you'd post because its fish guts. Also the other trout had a few normal objects I think maybe this is a sign they are having trouble finding food in the lake, but then again I've seen fish eat some strange things.
