Title: 2018 Getting the itch .
Post by: Homewrecker on Jan 05, 2018, 06:06 AM
Wow getting the itch again for Lakers. 
 I have not been out on the ice yet this year.
 I know if I go after Lakers right off the bat I will be hooked again and not go for any other  type fish all year.
 Its a sickness !
 
 Anyone eles have this addiction?

I'm with you. I hope to go in a week or so. Tired of 6" perch I want something to jerk my arm off!

Same here!  There’s a good lake trout fishery about an hour from my house, and once it has safe ice I don’t go anywhere else.  We don’t get many big ones, but great numbers in the 3-7 lb range.

Those sound like good size for eating .
Only lake close to my home is 3 hrs away (COLD LAKE)and anything less than 75 cm which is about a 10 lb. you have to release.

Finally found out how to cook those fatties .   I used to deep fry them or steak them for an oven bake.  Not any more.
I find if you just fry them in a pan  until the out side gets crisp they taste unreal.
