Big fishing news: record trout, Smeltinator

 Just in case you haven't been plugged in, a lady from Red Lake caught a record lake trout through the ice this winter, apparently at Trout Lake. 

At 58 inches and 57 pounds, it was certainly an ice fishing record in Ontario.

Here's a link to the CBC news story.

And in other big news, a professional angler from Kenora won the Bassmaster Classic, the first Canadian to ever do so. Here's a link.

Red Lake anglers should take note that Jeff Gustafson, aka Gussie, won the tourney using his own Smeltinator jig. 

All fish, including walleye, in Red Lake key-in on smelt. There's a tip for ya!
