All of these fish were caught from shore and are within 2 hours from the GTA. I hope you enjoyed!
Cheers!
I definitely enjoyed, amazing pictures! I see a kite spool in the sheephead picture. Handlining?
Great stuff. Thanks for sharing.
Was the Lake Trout caught from shore? If so - where, what month?
@MA- The Sheepy was caught on the good ol' rod and reel. Bouncing a worm on the bottom.
@OT- I cant remember all the details from that trip. It was the first and only time Ive caught a Lake Trout. Its on lake ontario about 1-2 hours east of toronto (Port Hope I think). I do remember it was about a 20-30 min walk from where we parked the car to the end of the peir. (Had to walk on this long stretch of boulders). I believe this was in early spring - I want to say march, but could be early april. At the end of the peir we were casting Rapala Deep diving Shad Rap's(you can see mylure on the ground beside me). My uncle landed 2 that day, I landed 1.

Port Hope eastern pier has the boulders, and according to this clip from an Ontario study - apparently the Lake Trout too (at certain times of the year):
