My buddy and I thought maybe we would give the Lake Trout run a shot as we never really targetted them before.  After floundering for most of the day trying to figure out what to do and where to go, we stumbled upon what looked like just a stack of fish on the bottom.  About the third cast into this spot, something hit HARD.  After a nice fight, we slipped him into the net...

 

 

 

Not a giant by any means, but it certainly was a fun catch.  

 

 

Nice lake trout.

That's a nice laker.  I was out on Lake Huron this past Saturday and limited out on eater sized lakers fishing deep down husky jerks and little Cleos.  I know some will tar and feather me saying this, but I like lake trout more than salmon.  It's nothing short of amazing, especially smoked.

Looks like a giant to me! That is one of my bucket-list fish. Sadly I am a shore fishing angler.
