My first Muskie(Pics now in)

[bottom feeder]

I met lowkey(Luke) at his place in Kars at 4:15 and we were on the water within 15 minutes. Trolled for three hours and within the first hour, as I was reeling in to check for weeds all of a sudden WHAM!! Muskie on. Didn't take too long to bring her alongside where Luke used the Big Kahuna. My camera was acting up so Luke got a pic of her in the net. Hook removal was long as it was imbedded in bone, but she never left the water during the extraction. Then a couple of quick pics of yours truly with her magesty. She was swimming strong upon release.Man I can't wait to do that again, now I know what you skie hunters are all aboiut. Luke will send pics along in the morning so I can post them
Thanks goes out to luke. I really enjoyed the fishing as well as learning a little something about these beauties.In turn I will teach him how to cut deer, a great trade.

Any time you need a partner Luke, call me. I am there

Had a pic of her in the net but it seems not to be a jpeg???
