The Taimen Trout is the world's Largest Trout (Huncho taimen)
with a record catch of 231lbs!! Also known as the Mongolian Terror,
the Giant Eurasian Trout, the Siberian Salmon.
The most common bait is a mouse or a rat.
Or if fly fishing- a large artificial mouse.
The Taimen Trout is being framed with my watercolor study
of the Lenok Trout in a Double Watercolor Image Framing
titled "Trout of Mongolia. This is my second double
painting of Asian Fish - with the first being titled
'Trout of India' with the Indian Trout and Tibetan Snowtrout
that are really carp that have the appearance of trout-
therefore, are named as they are.
You can view the 'Trout of India' on my website.
The Taimen is an amazing trout, as a typical trout is only
2 or 3 lbs, and the Taimen Trout can weigh 100X as much!!

wow - nature continues to amaze me. There is so much in this world that people do not know about. A trout that can weigh 231 lbs. !!!!
This is an awesome fish! I just can't imagine him being so huge and eating rats and mice! Wow!
You have shown me that there is a whole beautiful world of trout out there instead of rainbow, brook and brown!!! Love this, Thom.
