quote walleye_hunter: "You might get 10 different opinions from 10 different people on this one, I'll give you mine. The smaller trout from Superior eat fine, but they are not as good as small lakers from inland lakes. The bigger trout (over 6 pds or so) are good if they are smoked or planked. But what's not good when it's smoked? " Exactly, couldn't have said it any better ! p.s. Had some brown sugar smoked lake trout the other day, it was awesome !

Thank you. I will try one, if I get one (canoe trolling near shore).

I find Lake Superior lakers to be good tasting; though the fillets are more white-ish in color than most all of the bwca (inland) trout are more orange-ish.

I've enjoyed lake trout from inland waters in Ontario, but have not eaten lake trout from Lake Superior. Some posters have noted that Great Lakes lake trout do not taste very good. Would this be the case for near-shore lake trout in Superior? (I am talking in the 20" range, not the monsters).

Thanks, I figure on foil-baking a smaller one, if I catch it.

I thought I read something about a certain strain of lake trout from Superior being much better eating. I can't recall the name given......
"Redfin" perhaps? I dunno.....
