Gary Posted January 16, 2009 Author Share Posted January 16, 2009 Hey Terry....I very seldom fish far from home and this one was caught pretty close to home. Don't tell me you haven't been out. Been out 6 times since the 7th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jksnijders Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Nice fish and nice hound. I was down in that area (where you're from) once and someone I met on the river told me of a decent size laker caught below Lundbreck Falls.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Posted January 16, 2009 Author Share Posted January 16, 2009 Yeah Max, that is where it was caught. Jksnijder my brother and his son caught a couple lakers way below the falls last year one around 28" I think and one around the size of the one pictured 21 or so inches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pipes Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Well done. I've caught a few way up north just after ice off on the fly. To hijack your thread, looks like you took my dog fishing. I use the same collars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawgstoppah Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 Not to hijack this thread another way but it may have been my friend brent that you heard about on the crow... he got a 27 or 28 inch laker below the falls once. If he's a lurker here maybe he'll post that pic up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's a lurker here maybe he'll post that pic up! I thought that was pretty interesting.. It would have been a few years ago now, and I can't recall exactly the circumstances other than a guy I met on the water ( the only one that day) and I got talking and he mentioned it. Pretty cool I thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawgstoppah Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 On a sidenote about the crow. In the uppermost section before the lake (crowsnest lake) you can encounter the odd lake trout as well. Sometimes they get into the river out of the lake. I've not been actually able to catch a laker in the crow itself, but I have watched what I know was a lake trout without a doubt on a few occasions (watched them ignore everything in my frigin fly box too, gaaaaahhhh...)

If he's a lurker here maybe he'll post that pic up! I dont think Brent fishes anymore haha. I caught my first laker on the fly last spring at spray lakes. Indicator goes down so i think its another small whitefish, set the hook and yard it in. Probably the quickest strike to net time ive ever had turns out it was a 16" laker. Tasted good though.
