November 5th Splake Expedition……

A cold November morning and I’m off to check out a small lake west of Vermilion Bay that is stocked with Splake. John and Tom who are up deer hunting (and already have their deer) come along.

No ice on the lake but plenty of snow on the ground from the night before……


Tom with probably a 24 inch splake……which is pretty big from my limited experience. By the way, a splake is a cross between a brook trout and a lake trout.

Tom and John with the final results…….two very nice splake…..
By the way, they tasted great!
