| Last night at 9:45 I caught and released my longest fish to date a 57.5 incher! She came on a new prototype lure from Big momma lure company. Its a walk the dog bait that moves a ton of water much like a weagle. I use a very short rod for these baits at 5ft long and let me tell you this fish owned me! I still have lots of dates to fill for the year if anyone is interested. Thanks and good luck the rest of the season.

| What was the girth on that fish?
Jason only thing that I question is why you don't have the largest smile in the world holding that Monster! Was it really that heavy you couldn't smile?
Congratulations again! |

| Sick...nice work Jason!!
Muskyhunter47...the boat spun away from the setting sun...just a difference in the liting. Nobody is better at handling big fish. The pics make it obvious they were all snapped within seconds of each other. |

| Great fish Jason! Hope to book you again this fall. You are the elite of Muskie fisherman! |

| Amazing...let me ask though. Did she come up in a wake and hammer it, come out of no where and slam it or was it more of a suddle nip? Just trying to imagine. Good work...now go get a bigger one. |

Location: Muskegon Michigan | Awesome fish Jason. Had to be a blast on that short rod. Should be a free replica at years end from Muskies inc. It will be very hard for anyone to top it. And on a top water WOW, JUST WOW.  Have a great season, Mike and Michelle |
|
| |
|
| I don't care what temperature the fish was caught at... THAT'S A BIG DARN FISH!!! And caught on topwater to boot? Oy. Cannot imagine what it must be like to see something as big as that. Jason, did you happen to get any vid of it in the net? |

| I wonder who this Ryan Simonson master netter is?
I'm sure he was maxed out and pumped up beyond words after netting that fish.
He prob got piled drunk after seeing that. I know I would. |

Location: Bloomington, MN | Congratulations Mr. Hammernick! I'm even sure Mr. Art Lyons is cheering you on from heaven. In your post you mentioned using a 5' rod. That probably has made a bit of a sales impact on 8-10' rods. I'm 5' 7" and suffer from vertigo, so the top deck is off limits unless I want to go for a swim. I've been using 6'-6' 9" rods for WTD type baits, so why a 5 footer??? You are like E. F. Hutton of the muskie world, so throw us a bone! Maybe some of my tackle will become "trendy" again. |
