#3 || Chris Therrien: The Incredible World of Lake Trout
Gord and Liam sit down this week with renown lake trout scientist, (Dr.) Chris Therrien, who has spent years studying the habits and habitat of lake trout. Chris shocks the boys explaining how cold water loving lake trout will venture to feed into the last place you'd ever expect to catch them — hot shoreline water in the middle of summer. He also spells out why he would never fish for lake trout in a lake that didn't offer ciscoes as the principal prey species. And are you ready for this: lake trout suffer beriberi disease when smelt are introduced to the water. If you think you know something about the biggest trout that swims, tune into this episode and prepare to have your
mind blown wide open.
