| !!! MuskieFIRST Trivia sponsored by TNT Tackle !!!
MuskieFIRST is pleased to bring you this opportunity to entertain yourself while you twist your brain and curse the questions…plus win cool prizes!
Special thanks to TNT Tackle, makers of the Triklops surface bait, the Triglide in-line spinner, and new producers of the Undertaker glide bait. They have donated a couple of great prize packs to be given away to contest winners. Each prize package includes a Triklops, a Triglide bucktail, a Triglide marabou tail, and an Undertaker. Check them out at http://www.tnttackle.com !
The contest will work like this:
There will be a series of ten trivia questions or clues given out one-at-a-time.
Some of these will be easy, some will be nearly impossible...
Try to guess the answer to each individual clue. You may guess at these as many times as you like.
Once the correct answer is posted by someone, the next question/clue will be given out.
The ten correct answers form a combined clue to the final answer.
You may make a guess at the final answer at any time during the contest (even before all ten clues have been solved)…but you only get one chance at the final answer.
If you guess the final answer incorrectly, you are no longer eligible…so make your final guess carefully!
The first person to guess the final answer correctly wins one of the TNT prize packs!
We'll be running this contest twice to give away both prize packs, so put on your thinking caps...or at least your MuskieFIRST hats!

| Uneducated gobblers are in the oven or on the grill.
I was going to say turkey dinner at The Hideout, but that's Oneida County.
Uneducated gobblers live down south, smart ones live up here.
I'll say Kentuck Lake, Vilas County |
|
| |
|
| Zone 45
i'll give it to ya...more specifically "north of Hwy 8" which is mostly zones 44, 45, and 46...all of which are open for turkey hunting this spring with gobblers that haven't heard many calls before.
score another one for the college kid... |

the Tower of Pink Power. |

clue 2: north of hwy 8

HINT 4: there are 3 sub-species of muskellunge known to science. what are their full scientific names?
(note, this is about species, not various "strains" within a sub-species!)

| GOTONE (Dan Okray) has solved it!!!! : "Women on the Water"
clue 1: up north...pretty obvious and connects to clue 2
clue 2: north of hwy 8...again, pretty obvious
clue 3: tower of pink power...pink traditionally stands for women, plus the tower is from Guide's Choice
clue 4: esox masquinongy immaculatus...it's a muskie thing, and again related to GC with their fishtank
clue 5: Guide's Choice...Pat works with them
clue 6: Pat Strutz...she's working to get more women involved in fishing
clue 7: row trolling...Pat's famous for it
http://www.ablondandherboat.com/womenonthewater.shtml
