In spring, just after ice leaves is one of the best times for guests to catch lake Trout. At this time because of the cold water they are near the surface and can be caught simply by flat line trolling. Timing is everything for these early season Trout. The first two weeks of the season are the best time Then for the next month, the trout will start going deeper and tend to be spread throughout the lake at multiple depths. From mid July through September, you'll find the Lake Trout are concentrated in the deeper holes and are easy to catch. Some guests jig for them, some use the lodges downriggers.
