i heard that earthquake was supposed to turn fish on 2x more than a thunderstorm.... wait that wasn't in musky hunter. are earthquakes good for fishing? i wonder.

a good musky opener for our boat.

40".only 1/2 of the fight and had to put music over the video to cover up all my swearing. last musky tourney @ chaut. he got one (38.5") on his first cast ever and this was on this 6th cast ever. lucky b@stard. good day of fishing.

casting again?

been drinking tonight slimy (from your spelling) ? if you have done that many muskies- you have done way more than me. if you want to make fishing more fun- i challenge you to a one day musky contest at waneta this saturday. i will through $20 bucks up if you can out fish me! that should make fishing fun for you since you are so good right? i will be at waneta all day saturday fishing out of my grey tracker if you want to take my $$$$$?

this was kevin's first time musky fishing and he already got a 38.5" on his first cast ever. i was calling him lucky and couldn't believe he caught this one on what ended up being his 6th cast ever for muskies. 40". lucky b@st@rd. i had to put annoying music over it b/c i was non-stop cuss words.

fishing pictures don't get much better than a great looking woman holding a nice fish! congrats on your new personal best after being stuck at 33" for a year! you are awesome and i love sharing the boat with you, plus you try really hard. i am sure a lot of guys would love to take you fishing. musky lex !

how do i get one or two for my dads pond?

bob- i haven't seen any for sale for some time now. chad- dont feel bad, my dad and i spent a week on the french river musky fishing and i got a 48" that flopped outta my hands and the only pic was it falling outta my hands back into the water. was the only fish i touched that whole week of casting big heavy bucktails.

got pink tiger, perch, night shiner, fluorescent bluegill, shad... no green tiger. was it that straight one?

where is that pic from? think those goldfish are nervous in there? i was reading on muskyhunter that back in the day they had muskies in ponds where you could buy frogs and minnows to feed them in wis. heck, i'd be throwing in frogs until my arm got sore if i went to that pond.

come on guys, no more pics from saturday? chad, nitro, lee?

complain and be dissapointed on all wileys durability. these wileys are good for a short time, then they fall apart imo. not the toughest plug made. it only has clear laquer as a top coat. i would talk to dale wiley but it may take some time for him to get back to you, it does for me when i try every single time. idk? for how much they cost you should be able to hand them down to your kids but we know that doesn't happen. i would be p*ssed and most likely never spend big $ on his plugs again and he would never miss the $ as busy as he is pumping out plugs. just my 2 cents.

no bass in lamoka remember they moved to waneta when all the muskies moved south. waneta for bass, lamoka for muskies duh?

.

nitro- how does having a kid smile from ear to ear sound boring bro? sounds great!

sounds like a blast, wait another year and i will be reading all your musky posts while colton and i are chasing crappie and bluegills and that is what fishing is all about! i hear honeyoe has been killer for smaller bass on topwater. good luck and after bob wier i think my head would hurt to bad to fish the next day anyways!

u lost a chuck of wood out of that plug? no way. dont know what to say other than try out these rockets. i dont think that could ever happen these. i feel for you, b/c when u got that plug i am sure you thought it would be good for some time. sorry nitro. the only wileys i am keeping are the 5" deep divers and 4 headshakers, everything else, gone.

this saturday is my birthday and i have full intentions to put in 24 hours at waneta. i want to start at midnight friday and fish until midnight saturday night. sounds cool and it will be a week after my last time out so i shouldn't be all sore like i am after this weekend. my ole man should be my musky partner for the first time since he moved away to the city 7 years ago. i can't wait, i don't even know if he remembers how to use a baitcaster. i am so excited to share the boat w/ him and i really hope i can get him on a fish. for him it doesn't need to be big, i just want to get the old man back into the game and have something tugging on his line. we had some great trips to canada when i was a kid chasing muskies and i miss fishing w/ him. he is only gonna be out for the morning. anyone else down saturday?

did extremely well on the musky rockets during the tourney first time pulling them, plan on selling most of my trolling lures to stock up on these and that says alot. the only lure in the past 15 years that i have bought that i have been 100% happy with and performed as good as expected! deadly wobble and unbelieveable paint jobs, best hooks ever on a stock plug, strong screw eyes, triple split rings, thick clear coat and i could just go on about them. imo i have wasted alot of $ on cheaply made plugs. had them over 6 mph and held great. highly recommend to anyone who wants to catch fish. even selling some of my wileys to get more! i am a muskyrocket fan. our wiley's got hit 1x and the rockets 4x- no comparision with almost equal running time.

SLIMY try musky fishing if you feel you have conquered all other fish there boy- thats what i did when i wanted to make it tougher and now i find it so challenging and also rewarding i never b*tch other than when solgrande comes in and smacks a 45" right in front of you making you turn green w/ jealousy .

bob- i will sell you the 6 i have if you want- i am only running wileys and musky rockets for the immediate future. let me know, i have some decent colors. lex's fish hit a 5" wiley deep diver that has caught 7 for us in one year. its the short fatboy and for $100 i wouldn't sell it. bob- check out those musky rockets, i couldn't be happier w/ a lure and if your a pain in the a$$ like i am he will even do a special color for you, it just takes alittle longer, best baits going right now, i plan on selling alot of lures to stock up on the musky rockets. bty i was so jealous of your big one one saturday it wasn't even funny! nice catch again, that musky in your pics is as pretty as they get!

oh yeah i forgot- it was from lamoka and i used a borrowed measuring tape from #d c^&%g. fish told me that all her buddies have moved to the south lake also. its gonna be a tough year at waneta w/ no skies left in there. thanks bob. i was thrilled, i heard the fish before it hit. like woosh, woosh and then the line got very tight and i yanked up bill dance style on her a$$. swam away good and its gonna take me a week to make up for all my lost sleep. typing this now i am beat down tired, hands hurt, shoulders, nose and forehead are sunburned to a nice crispy leathery surface. shoulders are sore, foot hurts from stepping on a 3/0 treble barefoot that almost went into the barb. it was a full weekend.

yeah i got that same feeling ray as i was reading his post. i like walleye and when i fish them i dont expect long fights and huge runs but i always seem to enjoy it for what it is. a good time! slimy time to pick a new hobby and past time if this ain't fun!

i wasn't sure how i was gonna add it but i made like 5 edits to that long post. 48.5 at waneta is a big deal to me also. i have got mostly fish around 32-33" w/ my second largest being a 44" last july. fish had some scars on it and was fat for the season but all the fish this weekend were thicker than most openers i believe.
