Anyone brave the wind and head out the last couple days ? Son and I are heading up tomorrow hoping the thunder storms hold off long enough to get a few hours in
We toughed it out for the weekend as I had some people come up to visit.
Saturday it got pretty rough mid day we ended up taking cover in french bay and still managed to find a few decent schools of fish feeding on some bait to salvage the second half of the day.
Sunday was still pretty rough on the main lake so we went back to french bay again and had a pretty decent day jigging.
Monday the lake was starting to calm down and we managed to get out on the main lake to my normal spots and we hooked into some really nice fish once again.
Met up with a few anglers from here and the facebook groups it was nice to meet up and see everyone and share stories of successful days out on the water!
Son and I didn't fair so well. We got out to our spots but found the bait had dropped deep , only managed a few fish and lost a bunch. Did have one guy come too close and get my anchor rope. Packed it in about 230 as the wind started to get up. I'll be back !!
We fished Lac La Plonge instead. Were able to get out between storms a couple times friday and saturday and caught a bunch of lakers in the 2-6lb range. We kept our limit to bring home for the smoker and headed home a day earlier than planned due to weather and deciding to keep a few saturday to fill our limit.

I am heading out next Wed for five Days ,were the fish at french bay shallow at 80 ft or deeper in the 120 ft area in front of french.
Supposed to be out that way sept 1-4, do many people fish for trout on cold in September? Also does anyone mind sharing what they troll with? Never fished cold lake or for lake trout in Alberta before.
Location: At the end of the Thirsty Beaver Trail, Pinsky lake, Alberta.
