| Hey all,
Conditions at Webster as of 3pm today:
Water temps: 53F -60F
Clarity: pretty much standard for Webster, clear to murky depending on location..
Fish still in transition, saw some shallow, some deep. Got one squeaker (>25") on shallow weeds, one +/- 34" in 18 FOW (Pic attached) . Saw the biggest, ugliest arc on the sonar I've ever seen following a ball of bait in 25' FOW but no contact.
Sucker bite is active, had two "Jaws" type screaming hits (Grabbed the sucker and took off running with it) My daughter did some great hook sets but lost them both. Had multiple incidents of the suckers being chased to the surface.
Fish are hitting both small and standard size baits and both sucker hits were on large suckers
As far as patterns go, a local guide summed it up best: No pattern, fish hard and cross your fingers.
Got and saw fish, but definitely had to work for them...
HTH,
RandalB

| Last Saturday, our club, Indiana Musky Junkies, hosted our "Guide For A Day" fundraiser. I think there was about 10 boats (club members) with 2 clients each. A 37.5" & 39.5" where caught on Webster. It was a cold, windy (out of the east), rainy day, but the clients were REALLY cool, and hung in there. I think a good time was had by all!! |

| I ran a boat for the guide for a day outting. My boat saw 5 fish all coming from the deep water. Fish followed shallow invaders and kickin minnows. A lot of hard work for a cold and rainy day. Two of the fish we saw were mid 40's fish. Thanks for letting me be a part of this! |

Just for clarification, the club Hambone is referring to is not the Indiana Muskie Junkies. The club that hosted the Guide for a Day outing last Saturday was Webster Lake Muskie Club, chapter #49 in Muskies Inc. I think the confusion came from the fact that an old WLMC facebook group was renamed to Ind Musky Junkies. Our current FB presence is a "page" and not a "group" and the link is www.facebook.com/Webster-Lake-Musky-Club-221192334715809/. The other group is ran by a friend and member of WLMC, but is not affiliated with WLMC.
P.S. Bone, thanks fro all your help last week, we could not of ran this event successfully without outstanding members like yourself!
