43 inch Lake Trout caught ice fishing....
« on: Jan 30, 2014, 10:01 AM »
A father and son were ice fishing in Ontario, Canada, a couple weeks ago when they hooked a lake trout so large they were afraid they wouldn’t be able to fit it through the hole.   ;D

Very nice laker but not even remotely close to a world record. Record is 72 lbs and 53", I believe. Largest net caught was over 100. Still, very nice fish and an OLD fish.

Nice fish.  We did two fish this year on East Bay over 40"(41" and 43") in 6fow! Both 20+lb and back down the hole. Got to love BIG Fish in shallow waters!

If I\'m not fishing, I\'m probably thinking about fishing...And if I\'m thinking about fishing, I\'m probably not getting much else done so, I might as well go fishing...Yeah, I just said that!
