Maybe the right question is "Who's got trout?"
For warmwater fishermen (for me that's Louisiana and Florida) the only options for trout are a long drive (Arkansas or Oklahoma or the Guadeloupe).
So...having caught trout up to 20+ inches and having caught bluegill up to 11+inches, I'll take the bluegill for fight.
I've had trout go acrobatic, but never as much as a LMB.
And then there's saltwater species. Comparing trout to a redfish really isn't a fair comparison.
That being said, I REALLY like fishing the Rockies. Trout are a challenge and the scenery is great.
