Default Peerless Lake Trout?

Planning on heading up there tomorrow to try and catch my first Lake Trout. Having no Laker experience can anybody give me a rough idea where to start? I expect they are probably deep by now but I dont know. Any help is appreciated.

Im no expert by any means, but I know some guys who usually fare well at Peerless when they troll deep with glass/pink/light blue rapalas.

or try the classic williams wabler or a big ruby eye

be prepared for a long slow drive down the peerless road it is a mess got an 1'' and a half of rain in the last 24 hours, you will be doing 30km/hr at best the whole way.

Decided not to fight the conditions today. Planning on going up for a day this week once it stops raining. Any help would sure be appreciated. Really want my first laker and know next to nothing about these fish.

We are very famaliar with those issues, weve been fishing Graham for years. Just finally bought a boat that will handle Peerless. Usually I fill a red jerry with water & sugar and a splash of gas for smell & leave it out for them. 9 times out of ten its gone in the first night and always by the 2nd night. Writing "PREMIUM" on the can seems to help.

I have seen it bad but never like that. Holes over a foot deep in places. On the up side there was not another person anywhere on either lake.

Sure teach the thief or purchaser a lesson in free/cheap gas!!

I've got about 20 gallons of gas I had no idea what to do with, looks like a trip to peerless might be in my future!
