Big Lake Trout fan - this is my fave fishing video on YT I think. :)

Glad you liked the vid. We feel very fortunate to have been blessed with the experience. As for depths fished 45' - 65' was the average depths fished with most fish suspended about 30' - 35

Dude in red reminds me of Rick Bobby... if you ain't 1st ur last lmaooo

James I want to thank you for all you info on this. After watching this video last yr I Picked up a St Croix 9 Foot trolling rod and a tekota 600lc spooled up with the same line setup as you. I took my Zodiac 11'6" dingy to the north shore 30 min in I caught my first coho. I did it again this weekend within 30 min of having that line in the water I got my first lake trout. So again Thank You James and Grant you guys are great.

You can leave the fish in the net, weigh both, tare out the net to get the fish weight. Doing so quickly seems to work for me. Great video!

i am just speachless those fish are giant u guys are great fisherman u guys deserve a thub=mbs up more like 1000!!!!!

WOW. Fantastic video guys. Shows some real expertise to be able to catch SO MANY big lakers! This is definitely one of my favorite of your videos. Keep em coming!!

Crazy! Great show!

A double-double header. That's incredible!

This is an old video but worth a shout out for how good it was. Being Michigan waters I imagine you're still close to the Grand Portage launch area for us Minnesota guys.

fishing there is amazing I haven't been out there in a while but you can get addicted to the feeling of a fish being firm and fighting against the line especially a huge one like the salmon around there

thanx for using this line. i was debating trying it.

This is an insane trip, I fish steelhead on steelhead alley and have had some days that are worth bragging about, but man you guys caught some MONSTERS. Cant imagine the fight,,, I know how steelhead / trout/salmon fight and have caught my share of pigs 10-14lbs but nothing 30-40 lbs thats just unreal. I told myself If i get a 20 lb steelhead Ill mount her and hang up the waders and call it quits

That was insane! I'd be buying a lottery ticket after that! I've used leadded line for years, but just for little Kokanee and stocker trout. That's nuts! Definately must try the Suffix.

Hi Takman74 - We're fishing segmented lead core. So most of the reel is filled with mono or braid. To that we tie in 3, 4 or 5 colors of lead core. To the end of the lead core we add a 30' leader of 20# flouro. The 832 leadcore is getting us 8+ foot of depth per color so at 3, 4 and 5 colors our spoons are running approximately 25, 32 and 40 foot, respectively. Earlier in the summer we were fishing deeper using the same Sufix 832 and able to get spoons down in excess of 80 feet on 10 colors.

Hi Jason - we were using the Shimano Tekota line counters in size 500 and 600.

I subscribe to catch, eat and release. These fish are awesome tasty.

Fantastic thanks for the advice videos will be going to blind River in SeptemberWill try the suffix for many years I have not had not had much success on the troll probably not fishing deep enough again thank you for the video

next one is mi.. say it i am wildly jealous... man its OK! whether you catch that one or not you are still a great man!

Absolutely no issues with break-offs. The 20# flouro we were using is more than strong enough to land even the largest lakers.

Correct. KZfaq doesn't seem to do "view by view" view tracking. We'll see jumps of 500 - 1,000 at times

A+++ Vid guys

Simply awesome. We have some good Lake Trout fishing here in southern Lake Huron but nothing like the monsters you caught in the vid. I also was curious about the tackle setup you guys were using and if you had any problems with breakoffs?

I believe most of the spoons we used were Jim's Flashback spoons. Available from Marine General.

What speed works best for this presentation? On the terminal side is there a swivel a few feet up from the spoon?

Hey guys awesome video! I down rig for lakers lots up here in Fort Frances, ontario. Can you explain your rod,reel,line set ups? After this i gotta try leadcore!! Awesome video,

Reminds me of salmon in Lake Michigan out of Port Washington, WI.

I should have been there. Damn.

Holy crap, those are some massive fish. I knew there were some monsters in superior, but not like that

So are you putting out the whole 600 feet of the 832? That must be crazy.

Well looks like I'm making my dad try lead core and plan a couple trips to superior..

please bring me on a trip like this.

Is there a lead core that you can cast,I’m a trophy Largemouth Bass fisherman and I’m trying to get 8 to 10 4-6 oz glide bait down to 25 plus feet,fluorocarbon line doesn’t keep it down long enough,any feedback on my rant would be greatly appreciated thank you 👊👍

WOW WOW WOW, I'm thinking you could be selling those GPS waypoints for allot of cash, those are some amazing lakers!!!

What lb test lead line was it? I see a shot of a 18lb spool in the video but I didn’t hear a weight mentioned....

Do you use barbs?

where is this? im in sault ste marie ontario and wondering if im anywhere near where u guys got these?

What reels do you use , Brand, size? I want to purchase one for trolling walleyes

I would gladly intern as an extra hand for catching fish.

That was a two man FIRE-DRILL . I'm flagging this video as inappropriate > ridiculous

What time of year where you fishing during this video I know it’s a old video but I was wondering

What brand was the greenish colored spoon

Where on superior are you fishing?

Brand of planer board? My yellow birds won't handle all that color 832.

Can't believe they didn't weigh it??

What type of boat is that?

no views? how

If need need help reeling em in hit me up! hahahah How does one get started in your line of work? I want to pick your brain!

get some more panfishing in please.

Wait! Are you telling me there is no Santa Claus!?!?!?

Hi Takman74 - because youtube doesn't allow very many characters to provide an answer I did so in a private message.

hasn't updated yet.

Did you run all magnum spoons, and no flashers?

Dat intro tho

I'm sure we'll have an open water crappie show for you just as soon as the ice goes out here in MN.

What kind of line were you using?
