While that likely would have worked, I used a smelt head jig and gulp minnow body. I never actually do all that well on really big lures for laker. Despite the fact that a few big lakers have had gigantic whitefish tails hanging out of their throats Last edited by Hutchy; 04/22/24 03:10 PM.

Not so much the ones form Lake Ontario or Quebec. Have caught them on the white tube but mainly use metal- Cleos, Swedish Pimples, blade baits, all work for me. My problem is getting someone to go, there is always a problem, the wind the temp the guys wife. Love jigging, would be bored trolling.....jk Free people are not equal. Equal people are not free.

I am sure they don't all look like that one But if that is one that you could latch onto any time you go it would be incentive to give it a try Really nice fish .Congrats
