[quote Aluma165]Fall is the best chance IMO for a big Brookie. I've been on Henry's virtually alone during the late fall. Look up the lady taxidermist on the North side of the lake. (Beautiful log home along the highway on the left before the lodge; look for her sign) The woman is amazing and can color a brookie anyway you want. She's an artist par excellence... She's got a couple of fall brookies on the wall in her studio that her husband caught. He'll also give you a few tips on how they were caught...[/quote]
That's great information and THANKYOU!! I do know who you are talking about, but have never talked to her before. I did talk to another local taxidermist a while back. He told me that alot of people catch brookies that aren't in spawning colors, but then ask him to paint them in full spawning colors- ha ha- that's cheating! lol!
I'll call her up and bribe her with something! THANKS for the help!
