This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

muskie on Balsum Lake...Nov 1...with the kid

Post by fergusod »

hey everyone...

Fishing with my son on Balsum Lake today.

3 muskie day... 4 hours of effort. 3 passes with that shad rap perch against a bay unprotected from the wind produced 3 muskies.

I couldn't believe it!!! My son was nervous when the big one was brought aboard.

2 were about 30 or so inches and the big one was a just a hair off 45 inches ...my biggest so far this fall.
All released alive and kickin....:) :P

water temp 45 F, cloudy day slight breeze.
