Nice trout, but I really couldn't care less about eating them. However, I do really like Halibut. So are you eating Atlantic, or Pacific halibut? I thought Atlantic halibut are an endangered species or at least protected??

grin but yes most do call them togue. Anyone that says they taste like mud or are to greesey just plain dont like fish. Lakers are as good or better then most other fresh water fish.

By the way. After reading the quote at the bottom of your page, do you think we are all living on our knees now in the US?


Lakahs are oily,disgusting tasting fish around here. The only trout I will eat is a brookie...the rest go back down the hole

It is one of the best ways for sure but we are limited on our kitchen equipment in the shack so I didnt complain.

I had a clam shell snowmobile trailer, duel axel. The wind peeled the top of one storm. I took the frame to the guy that built the shack and ask him to modify it to haul the shack. He did a excellent job. It tilts and I can unload it in about 10 min. Takes me maybe 15 to load by myself.

Atlantic Halibut. They are highly managed. Here in Maine we get 25 tags per season. Season is I believe May 15-June 15th. Maybe May 1-June 15. In that time frame. We have some of the best halibut fishing on the east coast. One of my sons had 24 keepers opening day last year.

Norm trying to hijack your thread just wanted to show my pride and joy with a lake trout he caught today. He’s out with my father in law right now. They usually hammer the pike this time of year and catch a few nice trout too. That kid is a fishing fool. He eat sleeps and breathes fishing. It’s all he wants to do 100% of the time!
