Hi all,
Got out for some whitefish and lake trout. Had not had a laker all year until today. Actually went to the same spot two days ago and managed one whitefish and some pike and lost two trout at the hole, one being the biggest trout I have ever had on my line, felt like throwing up. That first day there were tons of fish around but they were being finicky, so I went back today much earlier in the morning, it paid off! Had around 8 whitefish in the 24β to 27β range, a couple of pike and landed two lakers, the bigger one at 34β and lost 3 with numerous chasers, all that packed into 4 hours made for a fun morning. I was fishing in 34βFOW , pike and lakers were on a 4β tube jig, and the whitefish were going crazy for a 1β purple and white crappie tube jig on a blue and glow 16th oz jig.
