Deliberately fish for lakers? Harumph. I caught a 12 pounder (small btw) on
an 8 weight in Labrador. I've seen little brook trout give a better fight.
It was like bringing in a log. Big disappointment. Now, if ya can put that
pooch into some northern pike...........

Not always true. Sue and I had backpacked into in small lake in the Wind
River Range and were camped near the outlet of a pretty little lake. I
was fishing the outlet having a ball catching lots of little Brookies
when out of the depths a big laker came up and took the Humpy I was
fishing. It looked like an alligator coming out of the depths after all
the little Brookies. Very cool on a five weight.
