caught a laker in Minnewanka years ago on the flat, 40 ft deep, in front of the first campground down the lake, caught it on a tube jig, brought it in, mouth and gills full of midge larvae, looked like the front grill of vehicle after driving through bugs on the highway for five hours, they make use of the food they can find, as to dry flies on Aylmer Lake, hey its untouched NWT beauty, those fish can and will eat anything, nothing really to be afraid of so coming to the surface is no big deal, fishing there and anywhere untouched in the NWT is heaven, i got to guide on Great Bear many moons ago, so many bays where you look over the side, in 60 feet of water, looking at a thousand fish in gin clear water, insane!
