Chamberlain Lake Camping: Brook Trout and Togue in Severe Weather

Winter camping on Chamberlain lake in the Allagash Wilderness Waterway.
First day setting traps and ice fishing for togue and native Maine brook trout.
The weather was bad enough that the only two other people out there were getting paid to be out there!
We get checked by the local Game Warden.
The Allagash Ranger delivers a severe weather warning for the following days.
We catch large trout and togue.
Great times had by all.
Part 2 of 7.
Fishing with the Down East Boys!

Joe, what a excellent video as always. Watching you guys deal with that wind reminded me of a small lake I was fishing here in NH a couple weekends ago. I couldn't keep the holes cleaned out quick enough. What a long day. But again, awesome footage, and glad to see everyone had a great time. I'm going to loose some sleep tonight waiting for the next video 😁...but I do hope that everything turned out okay with the rest of the guys from the looks of the preview. 🙏

Thank you! Lake Trout = Togue or Laker, Brook trout = Brookies or just Trout, Burbout = Cusk or Lincod, Chubs = Mountain trout

My step dad and I call it the brookie shuffle. We go around to our traps every 45 min to and hr bring the bait up and send it back it seems to help

[@capturehishonor9292]

Good to see you and the boys back fishing, Joe. It's rare not hearing Mainiac ice fishermen's colorful language. Except for the cold, can't ask for a better day ice fishing. That 29" togue is probably close to 9 pounds, and that fat 19" trout close to 4 pounds. January can be cold, but the fishing is usually better. The colder temps are encouraging so we get more ice and the season lasts until the end of March. Some years it doesn't get below zero. Those red dogs need to be flame broiled over an open fire. Isn't Chamberlain where someone broke the togue record of 39 pounds a few years ago in open water?
