| I expect this year to be filled with missed fish, follow-less days, tired arms, sore hands, long hours pounding the water, bluebird skies, cold fronts, hammerhandles, botched 8's, missed topwaters, and hopefully a muskie or two that happens to be hungry in the right place at the right time when I'm throwing the right lure in the right color at it.
In other words I CAN'T WAIT!

| Hey, Sled --
You hanging in there?
(I go by "I'm addicted to fishing" over on the MH site, because somebody else took "esoxaddict")

Location: St. Louis, MO., Marco Is., FL, Nestor Falls, ON | Expect to fish LOTW at least 120 days. Catch over 100 muskies, 60 over 40" and at least one over 54". Not asking too much am I? O.k. I'll add one northern over 20 lbs., one lake trout over 20 lbs., one smallie over 6 lbs. and one walleye over 8 lbs. Is that better? |

Location: minocqua, wi. | things have been pretty rough, but i'm hanging in there. helpless against what people say and do with your own children is a bad place to be. what has continued to happen with my kids shouldn't and having to just take it (and pay for it) is hard to live with. i'm fighting the good fight and just being a good and consistent dad. |

Location: Stevens Point, WI | Unfortunately my expectations will be a bit lower this year. I'm having back surgery again next Thursday and won't be able to muskie fish till the end of June, so my season is a little shorter. That means I have to fish that much harder when I'm back. It's going to kill me looking out at the Tuffy sitting in the driveway everyday, not being able to use it. |

| Wow, cool question. All winter I have thought about this year and to be honest, I have allready met my goals. Through my job and sportshows I have met hundreds of musky anglers who shared the same passion as I and gathered several wonderful stories. I am blessed to be able to share some of my experiences with Musky Hunter Magazine this year. My girlfriend is beginning to share my excitment and knowing she'll be on the water with me more this year is an accomplishment. My new Tuffy boat had its first holes in it from rigging tonight and finally being in a boat I am proud of has and will increase my enjoyment of the sport. My tournament partner is as geared to fish the WMT with me as ever and knowing that we will give it everything we have is enough for me. With these things the greatest accomplishment is just being a musky fisherman and I look forward to each cast knowing that I am a blessed person to live in Wisconsin. |

Location: Winnipeg Manitoba | I'd really like to release my first 50 inch fish. but probably my favourite thing is to watch somebody as they catch or even see their first muskie. I'd really like to see that a bunch of times. |
