Cheyenne angler breaks Wyoming state record for tiger trout

CHEYENNE ? You never know what you may be reeling in sometimes, and that was the case for angler Owen Schaad when he caught his first glimpse of the new state record tiger trout. The Cheyenne resident was spending the day visiting family and fishing on Viva Naughton Reservoir near Kemmerer as he normally does every summer. They fish there often and don?t usually catch much, so he was surprised when he caught more than 20 fish, including a few tiger trout. Then, he landed the big one.
