Adirondack Lake Trout

So over the years and more recently as I have become more active to these online forums I have been asked where to get ADK lake trout. I am very hesitant to give up this information mainly when I don't know if the person is practicing catch and release. Now I am not really referring to big lakes, Champlain and lake George. This pertains to the smaller lakes here in the park. The first step to solving a problem is acknowledging that there is one, and spreading the word to the public. It is imperative that we as sportsman understand how serious this problem really is. For those who have ever caught a lake trout on the ice it is one hell of a fight and very rewarding. If this is something we wish to keep going we must act now. Generally speaking the drop in populations is a direct result of global warming and not necessarily over fishing, HOWEVER, what few lakes still hold lake trout are at this point very sensitive to overfishing. Here in the Adirondacks we are at the southern most part of the Lake Trout Habitat. and these changes are directly affecting the lake trout populations. Please read this for a better understanding of the problem at hand
