Lake Michigan Brown Trout

[DarkShadow]

That looks like a salmon to me. I been there once and caught some when I was living in minnesota.

Naw, they're Browns.



Definitely not the 12 inch browns I'm accustomed to seeing, though.

Cool. Now that one looks like a brown. Nice fish man. You didnt go after the salmon?

the trip was intended to be a smallie trip ; so we ended up catching about 25 brown trout, all between 6-15lbs - all on crankbaits and bass setups. So it was fun you could say. Salmon fishing is just taking off now ; but with brown trout action like this, minutes from downtown, it just can't be beat. No people to speak of in terms of crowds. I was the only person fishing the lake front in downtown chicago that day. Unreal. I have alot more pics that day but for some reason, I cannot post them on this site. Too many restrictions on size of pics, or fish for that reason !

Way to go, Man! Sure beats Socal fishing. Thanks for the report.

It has been pretty sick out here on big browns. If you can cast a lure, then your pretty much gonna get railed

[jerkbait]

hope this doesn't make everyone jelous,but I get to try for those monsters before me and muskyman head up to Canadia to enjoy some real fishing

I should pay you a visit Dave. Can I sleep on the hidabed for a couple days? Then I can jet over to Minnesota for some huge Muskies and Washington for the Salmon and Steelheads.
