Lake trout are a large, beautiful fish that inhabit deep coldwater lakes. If you are wanting to catch a lake trout, the first thing you must know is where to find them. These fish live deep. You likely will not catch lake trout fishing from shore or close to the water's surface. You need to get your bait down to where the fish are to have any chance at catching them. Use a good fish finder, such as the Hawkeye F33P Portable Handheld, to locate clusters of fish. Another characteristic of lake trout is that they do not fight very hard; they are rather sluggish fighters compared to other popular game fish. The easiest way to catch lake trout is by slowly trolling deep diving lures. Experiment fishing at different depths to try to find the fish, but don't be afraid to let out quite a bit of line and go deep. You may get your lure stuck on the bottom occasionally and that is okay. For some more trolling tips to catch more fish check out this article. Lake trout are some of the prettiest fish that you will find in the United States. In areas where lake trout are not native (Yellowstone Lake for example) do not hesitate to keep the fish you catch for some good eating, which will help the native fish populations to compete. Yellowstone is great. Great camping. Great fishing. Buffalo. Bears. Lake Trout. It doesn't get much better. I can't wait to get back up to Yellowstone, set up my Marmot Aeros 3P Tent, and just fish and fish and fish some more.
