Well it was my first musky outing of the year , a good friend of mine and I headed out after work to do some fishing.
The weather was awesome , not too hot and a little chop on the water.
We launched about 5:45pm and dropped some spinner baits on the troll.

Not too long into it I had a good hit , felt some headshakes and then it was gone :cry:
We stopped and did some casting with no luck ,but it sure felt good!!!

A little later my fishing partner got a decent hit and before you knew it the fish was 3' in the air doing some acrobatics, and then was gone :evil:
No pics (sorry) but we had a really good first run , getting ready for the Ottawa opener.

All in all a great night on the water :D

Ahhh the elusive musky. Those hits must have got your heart going eh. I hit a couple of musky on the Nation many years ago when I was about 14. Almost pulled me into the water from shore. I must say, I love reading these reports.

It's always a rush to hear screamin reels, even if you don't boat them.

Thanks Tip- up I can't wait for the opener --only a few more days :)

DUQ there is nothing quite like a trophy size muskie pulling on your line , the strenght is incredible

Shame nothing was boated Matt but we all know that adrenaline rush of a head shake or out of water acrobatics. Gets the blood pumping!
