4x4bassin Posted July 7, 2012 Report Posted July 7, 2012 Was up at the trailer in the Parry Sound area for the long weekend and enjoyed some great weather and fishing. Did a little bass and pike fishing with some success but I really enjoy getting up early and chasing deepwater lake trout . I have really got into this pattern of deepwater jigging for lakers and have been quite successful at it compared to trolling around , there is no comparison in my opinion . The lakers were really active last weekend and I had alot of chasers and hits but only 3 in the boat which isn't to bad, it was a real blast having these guys shoot up off the bottom and swipe at the jig and I do mean swipe , for some reason there was alot of action but they were not smacking the jig . Here is a screen shot of a chasing laker hitting my jig . This is a pic of the biggest one I boated This is my fishing partner with a early morning visitor Jig of the weekend Back up this week to try again and have some fun
misfish Posted July 7, 2012 Report Posted July 7, 2012 Cool moose shot. Are those lakers stocked? Dont seem to be very dark.Look like a simcoe laker.
gino Posted July 7, 2012 Report Posted July 7, 2012 dog's look is priceless...he's like, "check it out,man"...
4x4bassin Posted July 8, 2012 Author Report Posted July 8, 2012 Ya , they are stockers. You can't really see it but the adipose fin (upper back) is clipped. The lakers in this lake are usually dark but this batch I got into were more silver. The moose looked like a calf and was definitely on a mission to get to the other side of the lake , literly swam 30 feet from us in the middle of the lake . It is amazing how good those guys can swim !
Leecher Posted July 8, 2012 Report Posted July 8, 2012 NICE!!! Jigging for lakers Great job 4x4bassin
limeyangler Posted July 9, 2012 Report Posted July 9, 2012 AWESOME! In my opinion the best way to fish lakers. Its like icefishing on softwater. Watching the fish chasing your jig is a sure way to get the adrenalin flowing. We also fished this way this weekend, like you the fish were biting shy. I am gonna try that lure set up...LOOKS KILLER MAN! Great pics and report....Love it!
asdve23rveavwa Posted July 9, 2012 Report Posted July 9, 2012 Great little report, awesome fish. Really love the dog/moose shot!!
johnnyb Posted July 9, 2012 Report Posted July 9, 2012 Beautiful laker.....nice action on the screen...and the shot with your dog is priceless. He's like "He's doin the doggy paddle. Which I invented. True story"
