My Personal Best Lake Trout

My Personal Best Lake Trout
36.5 lake trout

Michael Brod

Glen Ellyn  Illinois

My son and I hired Ben Kueng's Guide Service for a Milwauke Harbor trip to catch browns and rainbows. After catching and releasing over 30 fish I boated this huge alker. it was 36.5 inches in lenght and I regret not getting a girth as it was enourmous. I've caught many, many, lakers in Canada and a number in Lake Michicgan as well. This was the bigggest of all.
