Ever catch one of these?  I have only caught this one Lake Whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis), in Pickerel Narrows in June of 2009. Didn't even know what it was when I caught it.  Thought it was a short-nosed redhorse, using a fish ID key my buddy had along.  (So much for it  helping ID fish!)

Caught one trolling on Ramsey Lake, Spanish River watershed and threw it back. Didn't know what it was but kind of looked like a shad to me. Got back to camp and saw a Canadian couple with two on a stringer so I had to ask. They said they were whitefish and I threw back what they considered to be one of the best tasting fish. I have had smoked whitefish and they are tasty.
