ruttinbuc Posted June 7, 2008 Report Share Posted June 7, 2008 Spent the afternoon fishing my favorite reservoir trying to entice a big trout and caught this big cow of a Lake Trout. It was 25" and by my guess weighed 9 lbs plus. Caught it on the same spoon I used to catch my biggest rainbow almost twenty years ago. Never a camera man around when you need one. These are the bast I could do. I released the fish to swim another day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruttinbuc Posted June 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 That is one FAT laker. They must be getting plenty to eat there! Sure is a fat one, LEO....This reservoir and its Lake Trout population were in trouble a few short years ago as there was a shortage of baitfish. They reduced the size limit from 24" to 15" and started a program to maintain the alewife population. All of the fish have benefited from it.
