Jan 28 2013, Wet and slow

Went to work Monday morning only to find the freezing rain kept us down for the day. I opted out and took one of my co workers and his father out to try an get then hooked up in their first ever lake trout. I was out and set up in the same spot I had been fishing on sat and sun before they showed up. Just as they were approaching my hut I had my first hook up and landed a beautiful 7 lbs natural laker. The guys set up their hut and it was 30 min later I hooked up again. This time an aggressive trout chased the half and half Williams up to 40 ft. I handed the rod to my buddy and he iced a nice 5 lbs laker. Not 10 minutes later another streak and wham, a hog on the chase. Gave the rod to my buddies dad and he proceeded to fight this laker for 10 minutes. After a dozen runs to the bottom we finally had him where we could see him an boy was it big. Unfortunately my buddy's dad let the line go slack and we ha a quick live release... He was just happy to have the fight if a lifetime... Headed in shorty after that as the weather deteriorated.

Hey nufee,

sounds like a better day of fishing than having to be at work, And good on you for share the wealth when you were hooking fish.

Congrats

co workers dad with the two we managed to ice

^^ ya bud!

Good going

Another good job there nufee. Please don't sting them all before I get a chance to go after some myself.

Thanks bwmb

Thanks TG... By the looks of it there is quite a healthy population out there these days. With the year off last year, the lakers need to be thinned out!
