I will be after Pike legitimately. Muskie can wait until it's legal.

One of my kids was tossing a floating 1/2oz sized(not sure what the floater weight is) in greenwood bay and said something is hitting my bait, just a big musky bumping it with it's nose!

If all goes to plan I'm going to head to MN's beautiful north shore to get skunked fishing some steelhead. Stupid forecast clearing up, doesn't the weather know big bows don't like bright skies? I'd do some smallie fishing instead if this wasn't the one opportunity I'll have all spring to head up there. I'll have some fun regardless.

Plan on targeting Muskie tomorrow in Iowa. Been retired for 40 days and this is my 1st time out this year.

One of my favorite ways to waste time before musky opens. Luckily I can fish before work, at lunch and after I'm done coaching.

Fishing has been pretty darn good
