What the h$!! is holding that rod?  :o JK Me 15 years Ago but seriously can anyone identify this fish for me. I was in the North West Territorys and would catch these regularly outside of our camp. They were excellent on the Bar B Q.

Lake trout is in the char family. Some of the more familiar char species found in BC include bull trout, dolly varden and brook trout.
