 Today I went out with intentions of catching another Muskie. I've fished for many species of Fish, Selectively for months at a time. But I've never found a species to be so Disappointing, Aggravating, Yet Rewarding and so Gratifying all at the same time. These Fish aren't for Everyone!  I started with bigger Lures, And gradually downsized. I never even really Moved locations, Just stood and Made cast, After Cast, after cast. Each lure had a hard worked 45 Min. Until I came to a Small Spinner Bait. A cast along the Shoreline had me hooked up, And really put a lot of muscle into this Fish. Brought her in quick on the Bait caster, Though it was a Very strong heart pumping, Even air bourne Fight! 

My Second Musky of 2015. 



I'd Like to focus on some Nice Walleye within the next couple of weeks, in between Muskie. I have bass reserved for Froggn most of the Summer unless things get to tough. 

Thanks for your time

HAPPY FISHING
