While we were up at Andy Myers lodge a couple weeks ago this younger guy was fishing from the dock and caught this very nice 48 incher. Danny was near by, here is how herbie told me the story.

"The kid started screaming NET NET NET, so Danny thought the guy had hooked the little tiger muskie that had been hanging around the dock. Danny slowly walked over with the net. Then he saw what the guy had and said "I Will definitely net THAT for you!""

Herbie also told me I think last spring he was playing with the tube bait that muskie Innovations had come out with....and a 53 incher came out from under the dock and ate it!... he landed that one too...

A guy from our outing send me this picture so I thought I would share the story....

Got to love Eagle...

Awesome, at the NWAngle (youngs bay) this year there was also a 48" caught off the dock back in the marina. I might have to fish more docks!

I had a three fish day, 43, 46,47 and lost a 42 and furthest WEST I went was Colonels, furthest south I went was muskie Point, and the furthest north I went was McCalls.... Plus got the 50 the day before east of colonels..... Plenty of fish close to AML! Good luck Mike!
happy hooker

NICE!!! and further proof that trolling motors scare fish and your better without them (see the thread further down board)
but if you catch a WR there goes the boat sponsorship

A group of friends were up on Cedar a couple weeks after my brother and I were up there. The fishing was absolutely brutal and 6 fish were boated out of 6 people pounding water. Well late in the week one of the guys caught a 40 on a double cowgirl right off the dock waiting for another guy in the cabin to make it down to the dock. My brother and I found it rather amusing since they were really struggling at that point.
