March 10 2010-First Fish Of 2010

Udo and I decided to go back to Lake Joe and try again to catch that first fish of the 2010 season. We didn't have to wait very long before the "tip-up" went down and the Lake Trout came up! It was not a monster, but it was beautiful!

The Trout measured 20 1/2 inches and weighed 2.12 Lb. A perfect size to take home for dinner.

This fish is not natural to Lake Joe. This is a stocked fish. You can tell because of the colour of the fish. It is much darker than a natural fish and one of the Pelvic Fins has been clipped.

Once again it was a beautiful day and that was the only fish of the day!
