[size 1]"Although there's always a chance of catching a cruising Lake Trout about anywhere in Bear Lake, it seems to me that if you're fishing in an area that's holding some of their prey fish (e.g. Cisco, Sculpin, White Fish), you've got a better chance." I assume that the prey fish are not typically traveling in dense schools except for certain times of year, so how is the best way to determine if one is fishing in an area that is holding some of the prey fish noted above? As a side note, last Saturday I caught a 21" cutthroat that had a white fish sticking out of it's mouth that was at least 8" long. At least 1/2 of it was still sticking outside of the cutthroats mouth, and it was still interested in taking my jig. In releasing the cutthroat, I easily removed the white fish, and a seagull gladly retrieved it from the surface of the water. [/size]
