Location: Niagara River, NY
I live in Mount Airy and fish from NY to FLA. I landed this big mama in the Niagara River in November of 2018 on a Mepps #5 Aguila spinner in Bright Orange.
DNR Note: This is true lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush), not the Baltimore "Lake Trout", which is a local market name for whiting (silver hake). That is very large specimen for a river/shore caught fish!
