| Hey Scott,
I was the young punk driving the 620 today. Man was the wind a absolute you know what today! Did you end up nailing a fish? It definately was hard, we went fishless with one swirl on my bobbie bait. I heard there was a 34" caught on Channel in 2 ft of water. It's obviously not as easy as me being in Corey's boat and you being in Ty's, but it's still musky fishing. Hope you did well!

| Nice rig! Does that thing have windshield wipers (LOL)? We'll have to stop next time so we can chat.
This weather sucks! Water temps started at 53 degrees. The highest I found was 59 degrees. I caught a 34" on an Undertaker. I lost one about 40" on a prototype Perch colored Slammer Drop Belly Jerkbait. My client caught a 5lb. Largemouth on a Crane bait. I caught a 36" Northern on the Perch colored Slammer Drop Belly. We had 6 other muskies up - all on glide baits.
I am still trying to thaw out. With the wind, it felt like 40 degrees out there.
I am pretty confident that I wouldn't have caught the muskie had it not been for the new Costa Del Mar sunglasses I picked up. I got the new Ocean Wave 580's and these things are awesome. I felt a tick quite a ways out and could see something snaking behind the bait. I gave the Undertaker two small twitches and then a sharp twitch to make it long glide to one side. The fish hammered it. Pretty cool.

| Wow, I am impressed and crying at the same time. I almost always start the day off with a glider, but for some reason today (of course) threw one for about 15 casts then switched. Great day for you though! I tried to stick it out on Channel, but with that wind from the north it was like a wind alley.
Next time we are out we will definately swap notes. I didn't want to bug you with a client in the boat. If you feel like chatting you can come up any time, you won't be buggin' me.
Good job! And I'm glad to see it was you that got the 34". Was most of the action in the morning? See ya soon!

| Also,
No wipers on the rig...lol, thinking about brake lights though!
Water temps were identical for me, I did go to Spring Lake and the temps were 61, but no fish and the weeds looked like they would be holding inner city muskies (the troubled kind).[:sun:]
