Biggest Trout Through The Ice?
« on: Jan 21, 2005, 02:46 PM »
What's everyone biggest specimen thru the ice. Two categories......lakers and the rest.

Personally, I have nothing to speak of, hoping to change that this year.

It would also be great to see some pics.

My biggest Laker is 16 pounds in this my 5th season of laker fishing. I don't ice fish other trout as much, so I've caught about three rainbows in the 5 pound range. Hooked bigger rainbows and a much bigger mack last year.

It doesn't matter if you didn't catch anything as long as you had fun.

31 lbs. lacker in 1982.  A 3 lb. rainbow early this season.  My lake is known for it`s large lake trout, so we fish for them mostly.

36 inch mac about 8 years ago.  I'd guess she was about 14 or 15 pounds.  She would have gone closer to 18, but she had recently spawned.  6 pound rainbow, about 26 inches.
