2 nice fall Ottawa muskie fatties

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.

2 nice fall Ottawa muskie fatties

Post by muskymatt »

What a great weekend

My bud Arnaldo came up and he was not disappointed..

We pounded the big O all Staurday and right about 5:45 pm he got a 50" , I was able to follow it up with a 46" on Sunday.

He was shaking too much to lift it so I had to help a bit :lol: :lol:

Pretty good weekend for sure 8)

They are lamprey scars.

The 50"fish had 3 on during the fight, none were on when released.

Both hard at least 5 scars at different healing stages.

Healthy fish but really beaten up. I have another pic with a lamry on it, I'll get it up to see.
