really? i find lakers one of the tastier trout, better than steelhead for sure IMO. got nothing on the taste of specks or splake though

no, i love lakers, better then steelies for sure, but i try to get the smaller ones, you can actually compare those to specks! but the bigger ones are good too, i love ling, whities, lakers and smelt, those are the species i chase on the ice, thanks for all the nice comments everyone! and yes bowfin and ling are 2 different species, I've never tried a bowfin, but were told they taste like crap, lol, now ling on the other hand........

Where the heck and how do you ice fish smelt? Just super small jigs and a light at night?

 

[BowSlayer]

small moro jigs, the lake i was telling you about has huge smelt, I've caught them on 8 pound line and a heavy action rod, time of day doesn't matter, i also fish them in barrie at the waterfront, go out 30 metres and they are there in huge clouds, tastily little guys, and easy to clean!

 

[Christopheraaron]

Cool, going to have to try that! Love fried smelt for breakfast

Caught one in lake bernard with a minnow and a hook lol they are pretty aggressive

 

[BowSlayer]

ya they are aggressive little guys, I've got some nice ones from there, the teeth on those things are scary! like a little gator!

Thats a nice Ling I haven't catch one before, I wanna catch one this year.

 

[BowSlayer]

fish the bottom of the lakes you know have ling, split shot setup, a few dead minnows right off bottom, just deadstick it early morning or in the evening and you are bound to get one.
