In today’s video I hit Lake Superior for a late-season trout mission. I started the morning trolling and only put one splake in the boat by noon. I knew there were fish around, but they just weren’t committing to the trolling spread… so I switched gears. I pulled out a small swimbait setup, started casting, and caught multiple solid trout and had a ton of fun on light tackle. After the fishing action, I take you step-by-step through how I fillet, brine, and smoke my trout at home. Nothing fancy, — just a proven old-school method that consistently produces rich, perfectly smoked fillets. If you fish big water in cold weather, or you want to improve your smoked-fish game, you’ll take something away from this one.
