A couple lake trout from Monday

40" and a 37.5''




And a pike from Saturday

Waaaaaaay coooool!!!!

Crazy the size of those fish!!!

Either you live in a fisherman's paradise or you're a heck of a good fisherman, maybe both. Impressive fish as always.

Your the man!

Great fish Hutchy.

Wicked lakers, good going.

Very nice 71 here today

Canada is a fisherman's paradise.

Nice fish. Hoping to chase some macs on liquid water starting in a few weeks. What did they fall for?

Awesome! And snow too! I am headed to Ontario in just over a week chasing Lakers.

I didn’t know trout could get that big!!!! Really!!!

WTG Hutchy

Hutchy, you have the worst luck!

Where are you going? It's supposed to be 7 above and rain In a week sadly

The smaller one was a northland buckshot spoon tipped with a shiner, and the bigger fella was a green savage gear goby tube

That one hit 5 feet under the ice

The record I believe is 47", but like, 72 pounds. Fish was as big around as the guy holding it lol

wtg, thanks for sharing, can't fine any ice here!!

Butch do they eat well?

Crow Lake by Nestor Falls.

Wow! Nice catches

Fish fry at Hutchy"s

The taste of lake trout vary. Those we caught in Quebec at Chibougamau did not taste too good. the ones form Lake Ontario are ok but the finger Lakes ones taste good. I like Pike much better. Here in Pa we hardly had any ice this year or last. And very nice catch I am very jealous of all the fish you catch......jk

Small ones are incredible smoked. I do a mean maple glazed smoked trout.

The issue is that a trout this size could be over 40 years old. And as such, are loaded with toxins. And I don't know about you, but keeping a giant thats that old seems weird somehow. I like knowing those fish are out there somewhere crushing ciscoes and gobies and getting bigger.

Try Jamaican jerk fish crisp on a 5 lb laker.

Although imo alder smoked is the only way to eat them!

Freezer is full bud. What you want? Walleye? Crappie? Pike? Smelt?

Smoked laker from last year?? lol

Very nice!

Nice trout Hutchy, Have you ever tried Dr Juice . Trout . Cook pot barley, add Dr Juice stir in while its still hot, .Store in freezer , till you need it A little at a time in the water column, while jigging. Quite often they will be up high. . An old buddy , on Simcoe, showed me this. You do have a system that works, old 243

Sounds kind of like chumming for em eh

Interesting

You are the Man!!!!
