Wow, what a difference a boat makes! Last time I had a new boat, it took me forever to get it slimed. Others caught fish in it, and I caught fish in other boats, but I couldn't pop that cherry in my own boat. Well, that was different in my new 1890.

Saturday, while fishing the FLW on Lake Petenwell, I caught a 33" pretty Petenwell Muskie on a #5 Blue GlassRap. Trolling a breakline in the main lake, I thought we had a big walley at first. WHile disappointed it wasn't a tourney winning walleye, I am none the less happy that it popped the muskie cherry in the new rig!

I am so ready for the Southern Opener!

Sounds like that boat's going to have some Mojo. See you a week from Friday.

Atta boy Shepster! Any slime is good slime the first time in the new rig. If you want, I can toss carp into it next weekend. That will break it in.

Now that didn't take too long. Not even muskie fishing and he scores a ski. Sounds like Green Bay is in for a whipping this season.

See ya soon pal............

Way to go Shep, it's good luck when you get it slimed before the opener, I think??? Hopefully a good sign of things to come.
