If you caught those other fish using something other than worms or bait on the bottom (for instance, a lure or wedding ring) then they would be legal. Otherwise, you and your family members poached the 'and then some' trout. Just so you know, the WDFW writes hefty fines if they catch you doing that. Peace.
