Here are some pics of mostly steelhead and a few lakers of my latest fishing trip with Polar Bear last week.
These are my lakers from the Niagara River:

I caught this laker on a fly rod, my first one ever on the fly:

Sweeeeeeet!
Hey, is that VERY FIRST laker on top of the page wearing a "Five of Diamonds" daredevil spoon in its lip?
I haven't ever used them for lakers- but surely wailed on Northerns and Smallies with them...
Curious if that's what you used for lake trout too?
-
Nope, it is a vibrax #5 spinner that was in the bargain bin at Gander Mountain a while back. That is a cool color though! The other laker was taken on a chartreuse sucker spawn fly. They also hit jigs, plastic worms, grubs, and sometimes spoons. I've never used the Daredevil spoons but I bet they'd work. I have caught them on KO Wobblers, Little Cleos, and Crocodile spoons in the past.
-
The color of the spinner is called Hot Clown. It's on the Blue Fox web site so I guess that they still make it.
-
That makes a lot more sense. Thanks man!
I like those Crocodiles too- but usually for spring and fall browns down in the Catskill Reservoirs...
Those spinners are pretty much lethal on anything with fins- sweet stuff...
This plain gold Blue Fox spinners with no bucktail are no joke- Vibrax... They cast a mile and seem to taunt the rainbows and lakers all spring...
Thanks for the input- and the sweet photos... Awesome fish...

Just curious. What's in the bottle you have strapped to your side?

Looks like minnows??? ???
-
Windex?
-
Yep, that's Polar Bear with his bottle of Windex to keep his fishing glasses clean ;D
Actually, it's called a Quick Minnow, a minnow bucket with a strap that you can wear and carry with you, with a slim nozzle at the end that you can easily dump out one minnow when you need one. It's pretty cool. I might have to get one some day myself.
Thanks for the compliments fellas.
I should have resized the pics of me and made me look skinnier, but it would have made my fish look smaller, LOL

Here's a link to the Quick Minnow web site:

I was beginning to wonder if that bottle held Chloroform to subdue the Metalheads once you got them close to shore and applied a chemical-doused cloth to their gills and faces...
Put 'em down slow-like, you know?
Its funny to think of dispensing individual minnows like split-shot sinkers, but sounds effective...
Just a funny image, thats all... Like shooting emerald shiners out of a Pez Dispenser...
You do, however, look like the most well-prepared guy on the river with that thing strapped on like a sidearm...
You should wear a can of Oven Cleaner on the other side- just to mess with passerbys who would wonder "what the hell is that guy doing out there?"
Talking to yourself loudly (or wearing a bicycle helmet) is helpful to further the act too... But entirely optional...

Thanks for postin' those.
Man....I get out to NY 2-3 times a year and have a blast with the Steelhead, Salmon, Browns ;D
But every time someone posts pics from their trips/outings there, I get a little bit of anxiety....because I know the feeling of what its like to get fish like that and get anxious to get back there asap.....Wish I could get out there more often ::) :
Looks like you had a great time....Congrats ;)

Thanks guys, it was a blast. Let me tell you that Polar Bear is one steel catching mug! Basically, he was my guide and man did he put me on fish. Many thanks Mark!
