Joeytier Posted September 28, 2015 Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 Definitely not splake...Also, the regs regarding auroras (aka stocked color variations of brook trout!) are outrageously stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloatnFly Posted September 29, 2015 Report Share Posted September 29, 2015 Definitely not splake...Also, the regs regarding auroras (aka stocked color variations of brook trout!) are outrageously stupid. not unlike the Atlantic Salmon regs in Quebec in Gaspe Bay, 2 and done, C&R only, say you pay for OoP license, then pay the money for the lottery system to fish certain pools, thinks its like $100/day per pool, arrive at 630, land 2 fish by 7, and you are done for the day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloatnFly Posted September 29, 2015 Report Share Posted September 29, 2015 There are 9 lakes in total that contain Aurora Trout, and yes, those are Auroras, even though they aren't brightly coloured up http://www.brooktrout.ca/open-lakes-for-aurora-trout.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.M.05 Posted September 29, 2015 Report Share Posted September 29, 2015 (edited) Looks like an Aurora to me. Congrats on catching a couple of those cool little trout. A few years back MNR accidentally stocked aurora fingerlings in a speck lake. Can only assume you guys where fishing it, in which case there's no problems since the stocking lists clearly states that brook trout stocked lake regulations apply to it. BTW lots of fun rules regarding the Aurora trout and their lakes. Reminds me of playing card games with my cousin, he made them up as we played. If its not in the regs its probably its probably not a rule. (check with MNR when in doubt) Edited September 29, 2015 by Selfmade05 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adolson Posted September 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2015 There are 9 lakes in total that contain Aurora Trout, and yes, those are Auroras, even though they aren't brightly coloured up http://www.brooktrout.ca/open-lakes-for-aurora-trout.htm There are more than 9 lakes that contain auroras. There are 9 that they rotate, plus I believe three that are continual sanctuaries. And obviously the lake I caught these in, which is none of those. I'm pretty familiar with the aurora lore... I've been trying for 4 years now. They weren't supposed to be in this lake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cl_fishin Posted December 30, 2015 Report Share Posted December 30, 2015 Curious as to how this turned out.............any word from the MNR. Also congrats on the Aurora I know you have been trying to awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pike slayer Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 That is definitely a splake. I fished multiple splake lakes and they all looked exactly like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PUMP KNOWS Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 How big can those trout get? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Enwinde Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 Biggest I've seen was about three pounds but the record is over six. Most of the ones I've caught actually had one faint red dot with a blue halo if you looked close but yeah, those are Rory's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
