I report to you this evening that I have learned only one thing from life to this day. 32 years have taught me this:
Only one thing within our control leads to success(other mitigating factors in life aside): tenacious-unfailing-repetitive-perseverance.
After struggling 21 hours trolling fishless over a period of 4 days, success has come!
Today, while trolling on beautiful Lake Michigan, I caught this 29.5" 6lb 5oz Brown Trout!
And how beautiful it was to eat! Fresh grilled herb encrusted Trout with asparagus, homemade bread, and white wine....

You may want to check your fish identification manual for the correct species of that non native Great Lakes catch. It's all about tenacity.

Bro Jeremy
How did your STEALHEAD taste.....
Heres a picture of a brown trout www.michigansportfishing.com/brown_trout_seminar.htm
heres a STEELHEAD http://www.flyfishsteelhead.com/images/pics/steelhead7.jpg
The first four comments are all my brothers.
And to the sneaky commenter, nice try attempting to camoflauge one comment as Bosco's. He doesn't know how to use the computer and only knows the difference between a carp and a bluegill.
After careful review of the fish guide, it's clear that I was wrong, the fish is definitely a Pink Salmon.
I can just be happy you caught a beautiful fish whatever it may be!
What ever kind of fish it is, it is a beauty.
Love the picture so close to Big Red Lighthouse too.
I would like to thank all the phone calls, letters, postcards, and comments. Its a Steelhead. And it was delicious....
Going to try another 1/2 fillet (they are huge) on the grill covered in brown sugar...
