Laker jigging

Unless you fish the waters I do.

I run 40# flouro.

 

You do realize that you drove right through Pike and Lake Trout heaven about 1/4 of the way on your journey up north? We use 6lb. mono for everything "down" here. No leaders. Flouro is just something that we read about on fishing forums. Apparently it's invisable to the fish?

Nice catch

 

This morning I was thinking a canoe would feel safe out there it was so calm(NOT RECOMENDED!!!)

 

Glad to see you had a good day.

Don.

Yep, and I've fished it too.

Spent over an hour fighting a large laker on Nipigon with light line before eventually losing it. I was fishing for brookies at the time with a 2/5 oz firetiger little cleo on 6# test.

Best I could do with the fish in that hour was to get it 1 foot off bottom several times.

The fish hit in Orient Bay trolling a 30-40 foot deep slot between an island and the main land.
