Wisconsin has a good brown trout program. After spawning in the fall, they are available near shore all winter long. Salmon are done after spawning. The browns keep getting larger for next year. They are not pelagic and orient to the bottom near shore later in the year. You do not have to travel to deep water in the summer. Just find the thermocline and bottom structure meet and troll there with smaller spoons. Off four mile creek in 55 foot of water on the bottom there, I took two sixteen pound browns with six pound test mono[emoji4]. A great battle a mile off shore.

Why?  The picture shows the mouth ending ahead of the eye, not behind ... what is so obvious about it? I tend to think it looks more like an Atlantic.

Maybe this is why everyone calls Atlantics unicorns,  they ID them all as  browns and throw them in the box, so they never see any Atlantics.  I agree that it looks more like an Atlantic, but there is insufficient information provided by the picture to be sure.
