At 11.5 lb and 24", it is the biggest/heaviest trout I've ever caught.
It is photographed in "fine" setting, so the file is big, does any of
your freaks and geeks know how to "shrink" it in size? Tia.

Just about any image manipulation software can re-size a jpeg. Gimp is
free, so that's what I use http://www.gimp.org/about/

Nice fish.

Thanks for the reply, nevertheless, I'm actually looking for a
solution to shrink the "file" size; with "fine" setting, my digital
camera shoots a 1280x960 pixels image which yields about a 550k bytes
file, and a "standard" setting shoots a 640x480 pixels image which
yields about a 143k bytes file, and I'm looking for a solution to
shrink the image down to 150/inch pixels file size (for email and
internet display), if any, tia.

Nice fish.

Yup, thanks for the courtesy of California Department of Fish and
Game; the rumor has it, they're planning to make ICR a "trophy" lake,
so they planed 2,000 lbs of lunkers trout raging from 2 lb to 10 lb
about a mouth ago; I've already caught a 5lb, a 6lb, and this, ...

Lucky me,

I don't believe you because I've heard that in California all the
lakes are fenced off so nobody can steal the water.

Vote for Romney. Repeal the nightmares.

Ichen,
I replied to you, the day you posted. I suggested either
Photoshop or Gimp (which I use) and said that by reducing
the image's resolution from whatever to 72 dpi you will
have a very good display on a monitor AND a much smaller
file size. For instance, I shoot at 600 dpi because it
makes really nice prints on photo paper and will blow up
to a fairly large size with no loss of quality and then
reduce to 72 dpi for web publication. The resulting file
size reduction is from 1.5 meg to as little as 150 kb.

Nice fish.

Oh, and I have a question and a possible answer. If Calif.
F&G stocked with fish from 2 to 10 pounds, how did you
happen to get an 11.5 pound one?

I think I know. He was there all the time but when the
stocked fish got there there was lots more competition for
food so that when you threw your lure in it looked too
appetizing to pass up.

Oh, and in Gimp at least, you can reduce the "size" of the
image from, oh say, 8 x 10 to 3 x 5 which will also
reduce your file size but not as much as reducing the
resolution.

Thanks for the email, got it, although I seldom check my hotmail
account. I have neither the Photoshop nor Gimp, nevertheless,
according to your method, I've found I can resize the image in MS
Photo Editor and save it with a much small file size.

Nice fish.

And this one even caught on the video,

Well, not sure if CA F&G weight the fish that precisely; actually, I
saw the planting, from the middle of the reservoir about a few hundred
yards, and I "saw" some individual fish images flowed out the planting
truck! I thought they were "big," but didn't know they were for real.

Oh, and in Gimp at least, you can reduce the "size" of

Yup, that has worked; thanks much.

Almost any bitmap editor can do what I suggested. Photoshop
and Gimp are what I have access to. Gimp is free and available
for Windoze, Mac and Linux.
