Personally I like an over/under 410/.22 for trout. BTW, I've never owned a shotgun or fished for trout. We don't have those in the Atlantic - well, probably a few shotguns in there with all the drug boats, but a 410 would just bounce off most sharks anyway. Dad had a cop on his boat who shot a .38 'into' a nurse shark at a range of about 2'. Didn't leave more than a scratch, but did put everyone in danger from the bouncing bullet. I did have a shark that ran out a 60# line on a deep sea rig at full drag and snapped it off. The next night [same time] one snapped a 100# test line [no, I wasn't holding a rod at the time] and at the same time the next night the same thing happened with a 1/4" nylon rope. At that point I decided whatever it was I wanted to stay on the opposite side of the horizon from it, and it was too large to eat anyway [any shark over 6' isn't good eating, IMHO]. Who says guns and fishing on a MB discussion site don't mix? I drove down to the FL Keys in my '62 220Sb, so that ties it all together. BillR
