Have fished Lac LaMarte a few times. You will be hard pressed to get over 32 pounds there. No experience with Cree Lake, Lake Athabasca, never heard of a 40 LB on rod and reel out of there. The long term most likely places to catch Lake Trout that big are East arm of Slave Lake and Great Bear Lake. Not cheap but best bet for plus 40 on a rod and reel. Great Bear still holds the world record as far as I know and would still be my first pick for really large Lake Trout.
