Awsome catch. Did you keep or release? Just curious. So give us the details. How long was the take down? What line did you have? That is really really cool

I kept it. I fillet it out and threw on the que. It cut just like a steelhead nice firm red meat.
Take down was good and hard it pulled drag in the pole holder. I was running the rainbow colored plug flatlining right on top. 6 pound XL Trilene green colored line. I would say a good 5 minute fight.
My second rod had the same plug on it on my downrigger running at 10 foot and that is where I caught more of numbers sized fish.
I think we had a larger trout hit a plug (3.5" maglip) and we were trolling the middle of the lake as well. It came off after a few seconds but the take-down was pretty intense (even for my salmon rod).
When I was there on Sunday of opening weekend the water temp was 44-46 degrees!
