REDCHAMP'S HOBBIES
8/12/2007 11:41:19 PM
Pretty good early summer bite but now it's that time again on my local lake when the muskies move out over deep water. Suspend and feed on baitfish that I can't seem to imitate well enough. I think I'm going to throw more swimbaits next time out. Tired of having them swirl around the boat while I scratch my head, LOL.

41'x18 1/2" fat tiger tonite on a Bucher baby depthraider painted by Stan Durst in smallmouth bass pattern. Only action. Fishin solo. Using the camera and tripod with a good one in the net when you're solo is a real treat.

Went Sat(17th Jun) with my buddy Bryon K. He caught a 39 1/2" X 18 1/2" tiger and a nice 36" tiger. Both on baby Depthraiders.
I was the net man. I had a good time. Bryon gets so damn excited it just fun to be with him when he hooks up.

Went Friday morning to Lk Tapps. Rain and wind. Tried some windy points. Missed a hookset(my fault)at the boat, another fished missed my Turmoil and had one come unbuttoned on a Turmoil. Tuff day.

Took a friend out last Friday evening for his first musky fishin trip. He caught and released a nice fat 39" tiger and is now got the bug. Had a good time. Love to see someone get that excited.

Took a friend and duckhunting partner on his first musky fishin trip tonite. HE caught his first. A fat 39.5"er. He is a salmon fisherman but now he wants to do this again. Had a good time. Time spent on the water with good friends is always good.

Went to Potholes Res for Sat and Sun with my wife for some smallies, largies and walleyes. We weren't disapointed. One good largemouth 20", 6 smallies at about 2lbs each and came home with 16 walleyes. Fish fry time.

Well Friday the 26th proved to be a decent day despite the rain and wind. After 6 skunks I finally broke the ice with a nice fat 44" Tiger on Lk Tapps.
Twitching a Bikini Bait Co Turmoil. My lab got more excited than I did and that's hard to do. Put a tape on her and released her. Cool.

Been out for muskies 4 times now in the last two weeks. Skunked the first three except for some smallie males that are protecting their beds. Finally got hit today and screwed it up. Saw a boil ahead of the boat from a musky feeding so I threw my Turmoil to it. Twitch, twitch, ---tick. What was that? Twitch-WEIGHT, reel like hell but it was over before I could catch up. She doubled my rod over and was gone. Darn. Well, maybe next time.

Well I've gotten out for muskies now 3 times since last weekend. Moved a couple but nothing serious yet. Water's just getting to 60 so any day. My partner had an exciting follow when it missed his pikie minnow twice before going under the boat and coming out into the 8 for a third try but couldn't connect. Exciting though.

Pre-fished for the Potholes Open bass tourney last Sat. Caught 1 smallie about 2.5 and had a small walleye on/off my crankbait at the boat. Weather beat us bad. Can't wait till winter's over.

Bought a new Yo-Zuri hydro minnow. Looks like it's going to be a good deep cranbait. Tight wiggle. Couple of new baby Depthraider and a 1/2 dozen bulldawgs. I"ve been sharpening hooks, spooling reels and doing the boat maintenance thing. I'm ready.
2 bass tourneys to fish this spring before I get going on the muskies.
