AKSalmonSlayers Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Lake Trout fishing in the Interior has been a slow bite (nothing new) But it did not discourage a planned vist from a fellow Clam Pro Alex Spies. He made the drive from Wasilla up to North Pole to meet up with Dennis for 2 days at hard luck. Alex earned a bite and set the hook on a nice healthy fish at 110 feet. Bringing the fish to the surface was epic, finding out it was a personal best lake trout and largest fresh water fish under his belt thus far in Alaska was priceless. 27 inches of glory..great job Alex, but you cant move in..lol Equipment report: This season we are using a Clam Edge Auger (10 inch) model. we have owned and used a few different power augers over the last 15 years ice fsihing in Alaska (including Eskimo, Jiffy, Strikemaster) Really enjoyed the light weight, quick start and strong torq of the new auger. The drill is easy to use and control. Very pleased with its over all performance. Not Just ice fishing: The winter king salmon fishing has been really good as of late. Looking forward to getting in on some of the open water salt water action this year during winter in March at the Homer Winter King Salmon Derby. Until then we will keep fishing the hard stuff.
