Thanks to all the help from different PB members, the brown trout in my pond have thrived for about 10 months now happily growing along. They have grown 7-8 inches in that time from 8 to around 15 (a few bigger, a few smaller)

My question is whether or not they will keep growing, while we were out fly fishing the rivers last week my friend landed a 26" brown. The pond is small, but will they ever grow to that monstrous size?

What are the chances that there will ever be a 20+ inch trout in a small ~ 120' x 60' x 13' pond?

I would say pretty good. Have you seen what Cecil has turned out? They are in small ponds.

Given enough food, it can be done. Cecil has grown some 5# trout in a pond that is about that size or a bit smaller.
