I had Mike B. come up to the house this weekend to do some fishing. We figured with the full moon last Thursday that the fishing might be pretty good this weekend but mother nature threw a kink in that theory and it turned out to be quite tough. We managed to move some fish and hook up with a couple on Friday night and Saturday but couldn't manage to net any. This morning we got out around 7am and got back at it. In about 5 hours we only had 2 or 3 lazy followers and decided to call it. On the way back to my dock we decided to take a couple of casts in a promising looking spot that I had drove over hundreds of times but never fished. It's only about 4 feet deep so I put on my 11" shallow running Perch Musky Snax glider. On my third cast, about 20 feet from the boat this one came in and smoked it. It was a really cool looking strike and I got to watch the whole thing happen. It's amazing how when it comes to musky fishing that 1 fish at the very end of the weekend can make everything turn out fine.

THATS A GOOD MUSKY YOU GOT THERE MUSKYSEAN......

what a beast..


any measurement.........because that one is a long one.

CONG on that big fish and thanks for the report.

Muskysean,

Congrat's on a beautiful musky! There's something about that area near (or at your dock), eh? You know your stretch of river, for sure.

Beauty!

That is one beautiful fish!!! Congrats!

Nice Fish.

how long did that measure?

Thanks everyone but to tell you the truth the fish wasn't as long as it looks in the picture. It was one of the fattest fish I've ever caught from here but it was only 43 inches long. The way I was holding makes it look a lot longer than that but it was almost 6 inches shorter than the last good one I caught. Here is another picture of the same fish that does it's length a little more justice.

Muskysean that is one good lookin 43. Good job, gotta love when you are about to pack it in and wammo Musky time.

Nice muskie muskysean. Congratulation.

Sean is the man when it comes to working big gliders.
His most productive bait thus far has been that 11" Perch Musky Snax.
It was supposed to be a one off custom I made him but he's done so well with it I decided to introduce it as a new size on my website.

I got an order for one of those and an 11" Walleye glider from a guy in Belgum!!! He wants them for fishing monster Pike.

Here's a look at that Perch Musky Snax he caught the fish on...

Man you sound dissappointed in that fish, if i caught that it would make my year since i have never caught one and nothing that big either.

Don't get me wrong Badger... I enjoy every fish I catch and I'm never disappointed no matter of size or species. You know as well as the rest of us how difficult of a fish a musky can be to catch. As you can see in this picture that my smile is just as big for this little one than any other ones I've posted here. Regardless of size, every one I catch is special one way or another.

That may be true Sean but you've got to admit, there's nothing like seeing a monster on the line!

There's also nothing quite like sticking a big fish when your buddy gets a big fat nothing!!! lol

Sweet fish Sean
