Lake Trout are a very common cold water fish found in many lakes and rivers in Maine. These fish can become very large. Mr. Grignon has mounted many of these fish which weighted more than 25 pounds. It takes a lot of time and skill to repaint Lake Trout There are over two thousand different spots of color applied. These fish are often caught through the ice in the winter. The young lady here is one of Mr. Grignon's daughters, Amanda.

Lake Trout tend to be a deep water fish, hugging the bottoms of the lakes during the summer when the water surface temperature rises. It is standard practice to troll for these fish using many "colors" of weighted line. Many a fine day has been spent in a boat slowly trolling among the islands and bays of lakes waiting for that monster Laker to hit. Mr. Grignon used to guide people on many north Maine lakes in pursuit of these fish.
