Well I guess I'm gonna be the first guy to put up a fish picture. This was my first of the season, a 15" rainbow out of Lake Cenaiko.

Here's mine from Courthouse Lake this morning....

[roughfish29]

i've been wondering about courthouse.

what depths did you get those fish? what was your bait/lure?

[ChknChkn]

Caught them on 2 jigs....orange demon glow jig (M size), and a white glow ratso....both jigs had orange PowerBait trout ball on them (a little bit bigger than a pea).

Depth was 4-5 ft below the ice, get 'em as they're cruising by.....

Thanks for the pics. What about Christmas Lake? Had any success there?

[splakeshaker]

this was on trout opener. No piggies but a great time!!

[Scudly]

Cool. Eight bows and one laker or is that a brookie? Congrats on an excellent opener!

[waterbound]

It's definitely not a brook trout, look at how forked the tail is. Either a laker or a splake.

[splakeshaker]

There's 2 splake in there. The one on the end and the smaller one a fish or 2 later. They were all 14inches except the smaller one was 12. On our way out, we chased this little girly down the road quite a ways. bet it was all of a 1/4 mile if not more. Pretty cool really.

Looks like a good opener splakeshaker, thanks for sharing!

[Steve Foss]

Lake trout are still trout, right? So far, since Jan. 15, I've put 14 lakers on the ice. Here are two from today.

[Dave S]

Nice fish Steve. What did that 2nd one weigh?

[splakeshaker]

Steve, would you take me fishing if I buy the food, bait, beer, gas up your truck, do your laundry, water your flowers and make a mortgage payment for ya?? Awesome fish man!!

[Nate McVey]

Nice fish Steve!

[Scudly]

Congratulations Steve. Great choice for your profile photo. Story that goes with the photos? Those pectoral fins are the size of small canoe paddles!

Well guy's have been watching some very nice fish being posted here on the trout board. I thought I would post a few of mine from this past week from up here on Lake superior's chequamegon bay. Have been geting into some good steelhead and salmon in 3 to 5 ft of water. Soon we will be chaseing big lakers and browns with a few big splake mixed in just don't have the ice we should have right now last year by this time we were 10 to 15 miles off shore chaseing 10 to 20 lb lakers. But it should start in the next week or so hope you folks like the pics.

[AKastern]

here's a nice buck from last week have been haveing a hard time loading from kodak file back and forth trying to down load others

[Scudly]

You are one lucky devil. Make small stream trout fishermen like me jealous. I really need to take up icefishing! Thanks for the post. Keep sharing photos ;-)

[AKastern]

Hey thanks scudly ya the ice fishing thing is a scream when you hook up on these bigger lake run trout its all drag baby! Plus it helps keep your mind off the stream fishing for awhile.Will post some more later here's a 29 inch hen caught about an hour after the buck above this lady was all fight from start to release.

[walleye365]

well done very nice fish

[Nate McVey]

Great job AK! Makes me wish I was still up in that area! Starting to rethink the 3 lb. perch in the UP next week, truck might have to run out of gas in Ashland

[JBMasterAngler]

Very nice fish AK I'll be hitting chequamegan bay for the 1st time in march. It looks like you were using a little cleo spoon? Did you catch all of them on that...tip it with bait? For whatever reason, I never considered fishing shallow out there, gonna have to rethink my strategy now.

[lakerunner]

That is some awesome color in those fish!!!!

Captain Aron did these fish make your winter or what? Do you get 'em like this every winter? So will you chase steel in the rivers end of April too. Where in northern WI are ya?

Keep up the good work you are making me jealous.

Anyone want to get out for some trout? I live in the twin cities area... not really sure what lakes hold them down here.
