Article is certainly big enough and riddled with references and new enough too. On the topic of the hook, it is spread throughout the article, but I do not find any support for the "Eastern" adjective. Also the USDA reference you have given which supports the brown trout bit fails for me with Server Error (Error 5xx). Do you have a better link? Hook is interesting and short enough.

Not sure why you couldn’t get onto USDA web-site. I just tried above hot-button and it took me right there. Maybe USDA site was down when you tried to access it. In any case, Reference 5 also has same info about size of the brown trout in the lake. Regarding location of the lake on the east side of the Cascades, first sentence of Reference 4 says “Suttle Lake is a very well known and heavily used lake on the east slope of the Cascade Range.”--Orygun (talk) 18:23, 6 May 2012 (UTC)
