I doubt that there are too many wild trout in town to impact or that these bigger fish will have much of an effect. I was surprised to hook one in a fast pocket, however, as I've seen most of them come from a couple of big pools.
Edit: Looks like Clark beat me to it. That puppy looked like a shark when he was bringing it in.
