The Tokaryk Lake Slam

Tokaryk Lake in the Parkland Region of Manitoba is famous for the aggressive takes of the rainbows. These arm ripping takes are affectionately known as the Tokaryk Take. Many a fly fisher has been broken off at that moment because of the rainbows striking so hard. A group of us have a new term for Tokaryk Lake. We call it the Tokaruk Slam. You have to catch a sucker, a brown and a rainbow; all on the same day. Larry Prowse from our club is one of the first to complete this feat. Way to go Larry and yes, all on the fly.


The sucker is the toughest to get for the SLAM. Nice lips Larry!

The rainbow was also taken right beside a beaver house.
