What does TOGUE mean in Scrabble?
noun
North Americanregional
The lake trout, a large freshwater char of northern North America, known especially by this name in eastern Canada and parts of the northeastern United States.
A togue lives in deep, cold lakes and can grow far larger than the trout most anglers are used to catching in rivers and streams. The name comes from an Algonquian language and survives today mainly among anglers and in regional speech around the Great Lakes and eastern Canada, where lake trout is the more widely understood label elsewhere. A single togue can weigh well over twenty pounds in some of the deeper lakes it favours, making it a prized catch among ice fishers in particular.
