Mark Dzorak caught the lake trout of his life while fishing with Capt. Ralph Steiger last week.
Dzorak of Lombard was jigging a Big Dude Blade Bait with 10-pound braid on a medium heavy Shimano Crucial Ride rod.
Steiger goes until the weather stops him and lakers on southern Lake Michigan are the big fish of the moment. Click here for info.
FOTW, the celebration of big fish and good stories, runs Wednesdays on the Sun-Times outdoors page. The story part or fishing of the moment, such as this one, matters as much as the big fish part, generally.
