Tomcat Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 (edited) Six of us ventured into north western Quebec 11-17 Aug for some walleye and lake trout fishing. One of my colleagues landed this real nice 12 pound laker. However, much to his surprise, when he opened the lakers mouth to remove the hooks, he was staring at the tail of a 16 inch walleye (that's all that was left whole) attached to the entire intact backbone. During the same trip, I was lucky enough to see a Black Bear with 3 cubs - a rarity to see for sure. Sorry that the pic isn't in complete focus. I was out at 12 X optical in a moving boat.

Roy Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 Beauty shot Tomcat. I hope that that walleye didn't put him over his limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turtle Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 On the cottage lake I am on the larger lake trout (26 in + and 4-5lbs plus) eat smallmouth, rock bass and smaller lakers. A friend kept a larger trout and it had three rock bass (small ones) in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
