Large Lakers or kings?

[AllenW]

I fish mostly the north shore, Duluth/Superior up to Silver bay and have been looking for larger trout and Kings, been fishing in under 200 fow and probably no deeper than 70-80 foot, reading a bit on this forum and seems maybe I've been fishing to shallow??

This is my third year on superior and it's getting better, but.

Not looking for anybody secret spot, but a basic how to on finding larger (15+#) fish would be helpful.

Will be fishing out of a Larson FX 2020 this year and have most of the basic tackle, downriggers, planers, etc.

TIA

You might want to consider Isle Royale for big lakers ,,,I hear reports of some dandys caught there quite often ,,,The bigger kings are a little more scattered and few are planted ,,Mn and Wi don't plant any so that doesn't help us on this end of the lake
