http:// ` With these stocking reductions, 2020 lake-wide salmon and trout stocking in Lake Ontario will exceed 3.6 million fish, including approximately 1.1 million Chinook salmon, 755,000 rainbow trout/steelhead, 556,000 brown trout, 601,000 lake trout, 325,000 coho salmon, and 200,000 yearling Atlantic salmon.

Thanks for the info.

Can you imagine what it was like before the Europeans showed up with abundant landlocks in Lake Ontario? Maybe coasters too along with the lake trout?

 Far as true blue pike I only know what I’ve read and that biologists would like to have specimens as they believe they no longer exist
