Another great day fishing
4 more lake trout to share between 3 families. 38 lbs in total. I want to smoke some if it warms up enough. Fished from 7:30am till 3:30 pm. But it was worth it. I caught the two biggest(chest swelled up) and my betterhalf caught the other two. LIG

Wow, those are huge....weight? Ice fishing obviously? Lol what's your secret I suck at ice fishing I do much better on open water...
Re: Another great day fishing
Google videos on ice fishing for lake trout. Then spend $1000 of dollars on stuff.
14lb, 13lb, 7lb and 4lb.

Re: Another great day fishing
The 7lb to 12lb lake trout are the best eating. I have yet to smoke one. They are rich in oil and fat so they smoke very well. I have smoked 100's of pounds of other fish in the past 20 years, just not lake trout.
I rate them in the top 5 fresh water fish.
Now I need some manual downriggers to go after them in the summer.

What were the lengths on these fish you caught?
