Lake Trout are the largest of the Char family, the world record being 102 pounds. They are also known as Grey Trout and Touladi. The scientific name is Salvelinus Namaycush.
Lake Trout are slow growing and predatory, mainly feeding on smaller fish, frogs, warms and insects. Since Wapoos Sibi is situated on high mountain plateau almost a mile high, our
lakes remain ice cold all year around. This supports a very healthy Lake Trout population.
