An introduction to Cold Lake lakers

[Snag]

I am moving here in a couple of weeks from Ontario but I was flown here for a week to do a house inspection. I managed to befriend a group in the hotel and they were kind enough to introduce me to some Cold Lake lake trout. We had a great day going 27 for 30! I am not sure if this is an average day out on the Lake but I can get used to this. Can't wait to get the boat out here in a few weeks.

Biggest was just over 11lbs.

Here's some pics:

And I managed to keep one and cook it up in the hotel:

Awesome stuff sapper! Now is this an average day for lakers out here or considered pretty good? And Sept 15 can you still target them, but just release all?
