Nice hook set on the tip up !

[@therealfarwater]

@@alanruechel2240 thank you! I’ve lost plenty of fish with we cook sets before I try not to make that mistake especially with lake trout

[@markpotaczek]

Been waiting for this!

[@therealfarwater]

@@markpotaczek it’s about time I start posting again!! Thank you for watching, Mark!

[@lukecullett9044]

Awesome. Always look forward to your videos! What skis do you use? Looking to add a set to my kit.

[@therealfarwater]

@@lukecullett9044 thank you! It’s hen been a great season so far, plenty more to come. I use Altai Hok skin skis, they are phenomenal!!

[@lukecullett9044]

​@therealfarwater thanks. Was one I was looking at. The 125 with universal bindings. But I'm #250 not sure if I should got to the 145s

[@therealfarwater]

@ I’ve got the 145s and I’m only 170. Little more glide and loft in deep snow and over slush.

[@aaronalto3034]

You still have bare lakes with lots of exposed ice like that? I'm thinking of heading up that way for big N pike for a Fish Donkey contest. Some nice trout action! I want some of those too sometime soon. Keep up the fun adventures.

[@camanderson446]

itching to get out to trout lake a lil extra now

[@holmmie4433]

I need to get back up there. Never got a lake trout my only trip so far😢

[@therealfarwater]

@@holmmie4433 lake trout are tough, especially through the ice. Be careful! Once you catch one you’ll be hooked for life.

[@holmmie4433]

@ I already am hooked for life! Seen my buddy catch a trophy up there!

[@therealfarwater]

@ that’s great! You gonna have a chance to get up here this summer?

[@holmmie4433]

@ that would be sweet to get up there summer!!

[@sampowell9061]

Did you see Lybarger Outdoors lake trout opener video

[@eduffy4937]

Oh man if a guy could use skates up there.....

[@therealfarwater]

@@eduffy4937 it certainly would’ve saved us some time hiking out on this trip!

[@eduffy4937]

@therealfarwater I've been out on seagul a few times and up on snowbank a few times when a guy could lace up the skates and cover some ground. On seagul it's a godsend. Make it to the west side laker structure in 15mins with a sleigh full of gear. Beats the hell out of skiing through knee deep snow or post-holing your way along.
