On Muskiefirst is a sentence you seek, look here and there, in all sources you'll peek. Look over here, look over there, and eventually you'll find a sentence so fair! In a seat at Musky Road Rules you will find yourself sitting, against the best minds in Muskie your intellect you'll be pitting.
Egg.

Posts: 32970
Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | Baby it is and had better be, it's part of the word that came suddenly to me, while thinking of clues that would lead to the end, I thought of Norm Wild, a guide and a friend. No he has no baby, Norm is not a Pappa yet, but he says he has one somewhere, and that is the bet. |

Posts: 336
Location: Wheeling, IL. | I nearly always opt for a small twitchbait. I don't throw a whole lot of glide baits because I feel they are a low percentage bait. I compare them to a Jackpot, a lot of blow ups but not nearly as many hookups. A glide bait, I feel, lends itself to the same results only they are underwater where you can't as readily see them. I can get an erratic action twitching a 6" grandma but the bait stays more straight line so a fish can tee-off on it better.
That being said I will probably start my season off throwing a baby Jerko, only because I will have someone else twitchin'.

Well, you can all see how far that went! Anyways, I knew I read it at home today and as soon as I saw that the clue was "baby", I knew that I had read it at home today so the scrambling began!!! I searched through all the posts again and then finally checked the chat and found it!!! Wow, Thank you MuskieFirst and thank you Musky Road Rules!!!
Finals week just got a whole lot better because of you guys!!!
