|
| |
|
| Here mine [:praise:] |
|
| |
|
| Here is a 41 incher caught this past early June on my favorite lake "X". This was just one of 9 fish caught in 4 days. The fish was tagged. |
|
| |
|
| This is one of my favorite Musky Pics. But to tell you the truth I love all the pictures that I have of these fish. ....Some great pictures and some not so good pictures.
This fish I caught last summer on Lake of the Woods. She's 48" and my personal best.
catch ya later,
Krappie |
|
| |
|

|
| |
|
| How can I reduce the size of the pic so i can upload it? |
|
| |
|
| Here’s one of the weirdest looking fish I’ve caught. |
|
| |
|

I dont get it. |
|
| |
|
| I have 2 favorite and in no particular order so I will have to do a second post.[:bigsmile:] |
|
| |
|

Hey nxtwrldrcd, is that who I think it is? The single most greatest, HIGHEST rated, muskie villian ever to navigate the Chip?
MUSKY ILLINI
"This is the END, my only friend, the END" |
|
| |
|
| nice fish Krappie, neat pics Richard!!! Keep em comin! Muskee I think I caught that fish through the ice yesterday(lol) NWRCRD how did you do that? |
|
| |
|
| MI, yup the one and only stromboli
JS, I don’t know, somebody else did that to it and e-mailed it to me. The jpg they sent me was much clearer, but I couldn’t get that to upload.
Are all you guys using digital cameras? Or can you get images that good from old pictures and a scanner?
|
|
| |
|
| I wonder if I can make this work. Here's my favorite photo.
Doug Johnson |
|
| |
|
| This is my all time favorite muskie picture! The fish was my only Wisconsin 40#er, and was caught in 1978 out of Pelican. Things were way different in the Muskie world then, and I was a BUNCH younger!![8)] [:bigsmile:] |
|
| |
|
| I didn’t know Elton John fished muskies?[:p] |
|
| |
|
| I thought it was John Denver hahaha.

| There have been some great pictures already, Krappie that's a cool one.
Having 4 boys of course all my best pictures are of them, here's a couple. The 1st is Ryan, 9 years old with his 1st 40",,, he was a little,,, happy. He landed 10 muskies that year. [:bigsmile:] Dads are allowed to be proud! |
|
| |
|
| My buddy Jeremy with a 100 pound muskie.[:devil:] |
|
| |
|
| Aaron 8 years, may look a little dazed,,, and he was but don't think for a minute that he doesn't let his older brothers know who owns the biggest muskie of the kids! Nothing better than fishing with your kids.[:bigsmile:] |
|
| |
|
| Don't open this file. It is really big. Bummer.
Dan |
|
| |
|
| One of my big ones from lake "x" [:bigsmile:] |
|
| |
|
| Steve, that is one heck of a fish. I am assuming that the pic was taken back in your hippy days LOL[;)] |
|
| |
|
| Mine was the 2000 Musky Babe Picture on Rocketmans Website! |
|
| |
|
| This one tops the cake in my book. This was the best day I had last year and its something that I will never forget.[:bigsmile:]
You wont see a cut fin either with that Beckman fin saver showen in the photo.[;)] [:bigsmile:] |
|
| |
|
| WARNING!!!! THIS IS NOT A MUSKIE PHOTO SO DONT GET UPSET.
But its one of those photos that is makes sharing the outdoors so much fun with your kids. |
|
| |
|
| I love this shot as well, this was her first release. She reeled it in all by herself as well as releasing it to fight another day.
[:bigsmile:]
My big fish pictures can be seen on my site.[:sun:] |
|
| |
|
| This is my wifes pride and joy. The biggest muskie she caught. She always reminds me that she caught this 46" casting where I told her not to. |
|
| |
|
| Wow,Jason a musky with horns on.Must have been some battle. |
|
| |
|
| I always seem to have problems with the cameras in the boat, but here is a picture that came out fine. 48" Ontario 2000

|
| |
|
| MuskieE, its amazing what can be done with a 8 foot rod. Took that one at 75 yards with a suick. |
|
| |
|
| This one is tied with as my biggest. A 48.5 that took a Hawg Wobbler. |
|
| |
|
| Jason -- you are a bit too intense .....In Montana when the weather is hot we go skinny tube musky hunting. Just you and the fish au natural. I bagged this big fat beauty with my bare hands. After a qick pic and weigh...she was around 90 lbs she was released. Came back and invited me to go to her spawning party. Said I could come as is...so of I went.... |
|
| |
|
| Another big one from lake "X"[:praise:] |
|
| |
|
| still my biggest at 48.5(would kill for a 50", and I do not lie), Reef Hawgin again! |
|
| |
|
| Wow,
I hate to make you feel old but I was only 4 years old when you caught that fish. The fish was older than me! |
|
| |
|
| My favourite photo is on the MuskieFirst home page...it's also my biggest to date, which helps make it my favourite [:)]. This is also one of those "rare" 49.5" fish that went 37lbs...caught last August.
Greg B. |

|
| My bro Cisco Kid wanted me to post this picture for him since he's better with a fishing pole than hacking on a compouter.he,he,he (no offense I hope bro...gota get the jabs in when I can.). Here's a 49" fish that he caught this past November with me while fishing those cisco munchers.
By the way Jason Schillenger and Jerry B your fish are pretty impressive also. Nice fish Jason!!! Jerry B it looks like you have some great fishing partners there. Plus, it looks like Dad has shown them the ropes pretty good also. Tight lines and looking forward to seeing some more fatties this year.
catch ya later,
Krappie |
|
| |
|
| This was a Goon fish, one of my favorite photos because of the lighting..early morning with a huge low pressure system going through. Wet, cold, and REALLY good fishing![:bigsmile:] |
|
| |
|
| My friend and Wyoming hunting outfitter Jack Savini, asked me to place this here. This is his best to date, a 53.5 fishing with me and my son, Keith on the Goon. It was his third muskie ever; some guys have all the luck. He took a Booner 6x6 elk that fall.[:praise:] |
|
| |
|
| Hey Doug J, that is a little 6 inch jake in the fishes mouth right....well it "looks" like one anyway! Love those fatties!
Cory |
|
| |
|
| No Way I could pick just one. Too many photos too close to the heart to have just one favorite.
This was the largest musky caught on the day I asked my wife to marry me. She hates this picture. I'm dead meat if she finds out it is on-line. [:0] |
|
| |
|
| It was the front page picture at one time... It will always be my favorite. Not my first 50 but it is my biggest and most memorable.
[img]http://www.muskienut.com/525cassclose.jpg[/img] |
|
| |
|
| Always great to get the kids involved. Those memories last a life time for them! |
|
| |
|
| He taught me to fish, but he never musky fished himself. It was something I could give back to someone who put me onto a passion that will last a lifetime.
My Dad's heaviest musky (36#s) while still being two inches short of his longest. |
|
| |
|
| And lastly, a memerable fish only because it took us longer to motor to the spot that morning than it took to hook and land this 35# fish. It was six degrees when we left the landing and we were asking ourselves, "What the hell do we do this for"? It only took minutes to answer that question.
Thanks to all who have diplayed their photos. I have really enjoyed the viewing. Come on the rest of you, there must be hundreds of great pictures and stories out there! |
|
| |
|
| Not the best of pictures but this was my first over 50 inches, little did I know my second would be but 50 minutes later.[:sun:] |
|
| |
|
| I know Bill Schwartz does not have a scanner, so I will put this one up for him. He got this with me up in Canada on year.
Its a great pic.[:bigsmile:] |
|
| |
|
| These guys were by far the funniest folks I ever fished with, something that I will never forget. By the way, Bob got a 38" and I got a 35". Filmed for ESPN. |
|
| |
|
| One of my most favorite photos, My grandfather and his first muskie at age 82 and it was a 42" from Lake X.
Jason Schillinger, might have seen this one too.LOL
My grandfather is still kicking and has caught three more with me since. Many good memorys with him.[:bigsmile:] |
|
| |
|
| Anyone have an tips to shrinking these picks....
I reduce them to 30% and they are still large. Sorry I am putting so many picks in folks, but I am just trying to figure this out.
[;)] [;)] |
|
| |
|
| Here's my first real pig. [;)] |
|
| |
|
| Jason, when you resize make sure you're changing either the size or the resolution. If you shrink the pictures size but increase the resolution (which some software will do) obviously nothings changes. When viewing jpgs the computer cares only about the number of pixels. So you want to resize your images by shrinking the number of pixels. Also, if your software allows you to select the "quality" of the jpg it's best to go for a medium quality, this will make the file size of your jpg picture smaller for quicker downloads. |
|
| |
|
| kelvin, three things.
1) Glad to have you on site.
2) Thanks a ton for the tips.
3) Your fish is a slob.....great job.
[:bigsmile:] [:bigsmile:] |
|
| |
|
| Hey Doc,only one thing I forgot to mention about honoring the trip!
Keep you close on,I am not into that sort of thing! [:bigsmile:]
Get back in the closet [:bigsmile:] |
|
| |
|
| This picture isn't the greatest but it is basically how I got started in musky fishing. My grandfather was big into musky fishing. So much, that his nickname was "Nanook" - he loved the great Northwoods. In the picture, my Dad is holding his first musky (Sept. 1966) that he caught on a brown bucktail while fishing with Nanook on the Manitowish Chain (WI). I was born 4 months after this picture was taken. Nanook isn't with us anymore but his spirit truly lives on. |
|
| |
|
| Fast forward many years from my Dad's first fish that I posted above to the one I have attached here. I was lucky enough to net his biggest fish to date. A 48" on the Madison Chain. The look on his face is says it all. That is why I musky fish! |
|
| |
|
| Small lakes don't hold big fish...........
Someone forgot to tell that to this 51".
Now I know for consistency sake, small lakes aren't going to put out numbers of big fish. But..... If you don't have the opportunity to fish "Big Fish Water" all the time, spend some time on lakes that aren't supposed to have big fish in them. The action will be fun and you just might be pleasantly surprised! |
|
| |
|
| This is why I love to night fish. Nothing like seeing the silhouette of a big fish airborne trying to shake a Tallywacker (NOTE: Wackers catch whoppers!) |
|
| |
|
| Beautiful things come from Metro Musky Lakes. I think this is the neatest looking fish I have ever caught in my life.
Madison Chain - 45" hybrid |
|
| |
|
| Here is even a better photo of my 45" Madison Chain hybrid. |
|
| |
|
| Here's a Fox Chain (IL) fatty. |
|
| |
|
| Another favorite photo. I have been lucky enough to have two doubles in my life. Here I have a 43" that I caught on a figure eight (Squirko) and my client caught a 37" on a quick strike sucker rig. This is one of the very reasons that I have a sucker over the side of the boat in the Fall. The feeding window might be very small. When the fish go, there is a good chance that there could be several active fish in a very small location. While I was fighting the fish on the figure eight, the sucker took off. We were literally fighting these fish at the same time! |
|
| |
|
| Try again........... Double muskies! |
|
| |
|
| I spend as much time fishing with my Dad as I can. Here is another proud moment. We fished in the first ever PMTT event - June 1999 - Chippewa Flowage, WI. This fish hit a bucktail at boatside and really took me for a ride. After an awesome battle, we got the fish into the net. The fish was good enough for us to cash in at 5th place. |
|
| |
|
| Fast forward to this years PMTT Invitational Championship on Pewaukee Lake. This fish followed a 7" perch colored Slammer to boatside and three complete figure eights before it hammered the bait. After some acrobatic leaps, my partner Keith Eldrup slid the net under her and she was history. 45" - good enough to put us into 8th place and big fish for the day. Man were we pumped! |
|
| |
|
| My biggest!!
MuskyDan |
|
| |
|
| This is my favorite pic. It is my first 50"er, actually 52.5. I think its a nice cpr pic what do you think?
MuskyDan |
|
| |
|
| This was my first muskie after moving back to Ohio. Only 33" but a man's gotta start somewhere!
BTW: That's NOT a Bill Dance cap! That's the University of Texas! |
|
| |
|
| This pic is on my top 10 list.
Good pic of my old Tuffy esox Ltd, man that boat was great..shouldnt have ever sold it.[:blackeye:] |

| A fat little piggy from Schlingers back yard. |
|
| |
|
| This is Keith Worrall with a 47" Wabigoon fish. It ate a little Suick, one of Keith's favorite lures there. |
|
| |
|
| This is Brian Worrall with two Lake Thompson fish, a 40 and a 35.5, same day last summer on a Violent Strike spinnerbait.[:bigsmile:]
Had to correct the sizes, was alittle off...[8)] |
|
| |
|
| Here is a picture from my den wall, another Pelican fish! One of my favorite pictures.[:bigsmile:] She was 49 and alittle. |
|
| |
|
| Great pics Mr. Jenkins.
[:bigsmile:] [:bigsmile:] [:bigsmile:] |
|
| |
|
| This one is my all time favorite from a small lake in Northern WI. There aren't many fish that can provide this kind of shot on command. |
|
| |
|
| Here is one more of a decent fish from my favorite of all lakes....Pelican Lake. |
|
| |
|
| We need more of these.....GREAT PICS guys..
We have some really good fisherman on site....no doubt.[:bigsmile:] |

| Jason, here's one of three in a morning from that spot. |
|

|
| a heckuva fatty from lake X. Whre is this at Jason??????? Donnie Kempen popped this pig last fall, and had to beach the canoe so the fish could be delt with. |
|
| |
|
| hmmmm email me so I know...[;)] |
|

| Any more good pics out there? |
|

|
| Can't seem to be able to upload pics....goes to a page that says I can't access the site...WTF!!??
Slamr |
|
| |
|
| This is one of my favorites. Why you ask?
Jenkins had the fish up in front of the boat and couldn't get hooks into her. Two casts later I landed her. I actually felt really bad!
[:blackeye:] |
|
| |
|
| This one is a great pic of my 5 year old with his first Musky. I ended up being netboy for him. Great day! [:)] |
|
| |
|
| Finally....this isn't the favorite pic, but it's one from the season so far.
Slamr |
|
| |
|
| see if this works [:((] |
|
| |
|
| TECK,
Cool picture, I just have one question, how long after release did you realize the musky left you more than the gift of catching it? (the musky poop on your leg). I just hope you didn't think it was Grey Poupon on your leg (grey poop-on) . Just some humor.
-Phil Cali |
|
| |
|
| This is not my biggest or anything like that, I just love how hybrids look in photos. The full picture of this is gorgeous with the North Woods in the background. This one is from the Chip, first spot in the morning on a Crane.
-Phil Cali |
|
| |
|
| This was my biggest fish I have ever held, 51" from the chip...One big thing, the fish was a mount. I did it as a joke for my friends to see their mouths drop. Pretty good picture though huh? LOL...I would never keep a fish so please note it is fake, thanks to Treelands Resort for helping me with this one.
-Phil Cali |
|
| |
|
| Here's a pic of a old client of mine(Bob Bulkley) and this picture does do this fish justice, 51" and thick weighing in at 38lbs, caught on the last day of the 2000 season.

|
| More Poupon![:bigsmile:] |
|
| |
|
| You beat me to it, I'm the Poupon (poop-on) inspector. Luckily I haven't been part of the Poupon club.
-Phil Cali |
|
| |
|
| This is one of my biggest so far, a figure-8 fish that scared the living beejeezies out of the guy I took fishing that day. |
|
| |
|
| This is by far my favorite pic. It is my only pic. This is the first and only musky I have ever caught. I just started musky fishing this year. Not a bad start. It is a 42 incher and now I am hooked for life. She is back where she belongs I want her next year when she will be a 50 incher.
Thanks, Eck. |
|
| |
|
| Nice fish Eck and Ranger!![:bigsmile:] [:bigsmile:] |
|

|

| this is a year or so ago, definatly not the biggest but has a good story behind it. Caught two fish within 5 minutes at the same exact spot in october i think it was ripping a bill lewis firetiger rattle trap. After I caught the second one a storm was just rolling in lik e2 or 3 minutes later I barely got out of there on time. This goes back to the days I had to dock fish:(

| Mike, what kind of boat were you in? Looks nice + wide w/ plenty of storage for Coke Colas/Pay Days![:0] |
|
| |
|
| Someday, I will have the time to figure out how to post a pick. I have some good pictures, just no idea how to get one in my computer and then retrieve it and put it here on this site. |
|
| |
|
| Jason not a big fish, but the back ground of the snow really sets it off. Caught in 2000, Sunday of opening deer season.[;)] |
|
| |
|
| TForcier:
Neat picture. Bet you weren't bothered by pleasure boaters!! In fact, I would reckon if you saw another boat at all, it was just a reflection of your own!!....[;)]

|
| What about this 50 Lb Torpedo! My best from 2001 season. Kevin Selders # 41 |
|
| |
|
| Here is one my son caught this year out of Nestor Falls, Ontario. It was 52" and had a 40" male swimming along side her throughout the whole fight. My son has it all on video tape. He thought he had a world record until he realized it was two separate fish. He caught 2 - 48" muskies the next day and his buddy caught a 47". He sure taught the old man a thing or three. |

|
| This is my 4 year old grandson's first muskie. If I play my cards right, he'll take me fishing when I'm too old to drive! |

GOTTA SAY NICE PICS! You guys have a board here that I should've already known about,lol.
Good fishing all! |
|
| |
|
| Here's another snow muskie! No monster, but when it's that cold out we'll take anything![;)] |
|
| |
|
| Here's a nice 47" first fish that is hanging on my wall! Coulda woulda shoulda--I woulda had a replica done and she would've grew to see 50" for me to catch again! This is why I tell people that I introduce to the sport about true trophy size and replicas.
P.S. Gotta love catching those muskies![:p] |
|
| |
|
| This is the biggest for this year! Hope the picture is attached, first time trying this attachment thing on a board. [:0] |
