Location: Lebanon,Mo | So my intentions this morning was to put the boat in the water and try the new ss prop and adjust the height of the motor if needed.I planned to fish a bit since i would be there at first light and knew the full moon was going on and a very small weather disturbance to my west....what i didnt know is i would boat a 45,46,and then a 39 in all less than a hour by myself.I spent 15 minutes of that hour catching the fish and the rest of that hour netting,measuring,photo,releasing and replacing hooks.I averaged 8 casts between fish and will be a morning i will never forget.All photos were taken with my camera on timer,so there not the best and it was a job,but worth every minute i spent on the lake with no one around...

Location: North Metro - Twin Cities | Missouri, Nice job on the fish, always an adventure when you are solo. I also noticed the Phantom decal in your boat. If any of these fish were caught on Phantoms you should post the pics in Phantom's new Facebook page. They are going to give out free stuff from time to time for fans who have "liked" the page. |

Location: Ontario | That's a fantastic looking boat. Like someone else said, very clean and tons of room. You can't lose with Yamaha, the layout of that boat is ideal for all kinds of fishing. Be a great lodge boat.
One thing I can tell you from my experience and the experience of buddies...new boats are VERY lucky. You will have another couple days like that one before you hang it up this season, I can almsot guarantee it. I've seen it and experienced it many times. It's almost like the fish are actively thanking you for buying and rigging up a new boat. Nice job! Your report just supported the story again. |

| Nice Musky's bro! Jeez three in one day that's an awesome feat. I too caught a couple musky's this year 1 hour apart from each other. To tell you the truth I was going to call it quits after I bagged the first musky. Anyway, nice job! |
