Location: Walker, MN | Like Steve said. Unless they are really rusty, just touch them up with a file and send 'em flyin'. Maybe you'll catch a 25-30 year old muskie!!!!! |

| If you don't want to fish the 10" I will gladly fish them, my wood Suick's from the 80's produce more fish than the new ones! I recommend a split ring on the front eye as they tend to swell once the paint chips |

Hmmm, I have a six inch Suick that I caught my first "legal" musky on in the late 1970s. I don't know if there are any 40 year old muskies out there but maybe I should take it out of retirement and see?? |
