| Just caught a small muskie on Pokegama. Anyone else have experiences with muskies on Pokegama either before or after the stocking a few years ago? |

| I grew up on the lake and still fish it a ton for walleyes, spent some time this summer chasing muskies and only had a few follows. Think it will be a few more years before its a fishable population. |

| My son caught a 19"er a yr or two after the stocking. I have seen pictures of what I would guess at an upper 30's, maybe 40 caught last yr. I have been fishing that lake for at least a weeks time for the last 50 yrs, TONS of forage in the lake, including smelt, I have a hard time believing that any muskie would even think of going after a lure. Did not make it up there this year. Never have targeted them yet, will next year. Unbelievable structure, weedbeds, drop-offs, crystal clear. Just maybe too many bait fish, if that is possible,?? |

| Thanks.....I agree about the forage. I've been fishing the area since 1959 but only fished Pokegama for the last 3 years. Beautiful lake. |
