Has anyone fished with JON BONDY on the Detroit River for Musky ???? Here is a pig { 55" x 24" } he boated, WOW that's got to be fun when a musky slams a Bondy bait jigging it 20-30ft down along side the boat !!!!!

Pikemaster, the fish is great looking but she is nothing compared to your wife.
Does anyone disagree that the Lac St. Clair/Detroit River muskies are the prettiest in North America?
Who knows where the ugliest, meanest looking, come from?

That's easy... Calahan Lake near Hayward. Home of the Irish Temper Muskie.


Seriously though... In-Fisherman had an article on Bondy in their Spring Pike/Muskie issue.

I was looking at getting a bondy bait for some of the flowages that I go on. That ski is a piggy.

All you have to do is try this one day, and if you are not successful, you will never do it again... It is boring, it hurts, it is boring, it hurts... However, Jon proves it is very productve at times for catching large muskies... Each year he does pretty well on 50" class fish, usually including a piggy. This is his largest i am quite certain.

That river produces some real monsters throughtout the year. It seems that my best luck is while walleye fishing LOL

Come on Chadster, don't be a sissy. A little bit of carpal tunnel from fishing is something you can brag to your buddies about. It can be boring, but the rewards are great....and my jokes are good when I get going.

LOL Jon... I have tried several times, and even a few in your shadow, but probably only totalling 12-18 hours. Have had 2 fish on, but have not got good hooks in them. Its a confidence thing. For some silly reason, I feel more confident chucking lures all day then I do jigging. However, you clearly demonstrate the effectiveness...

If I could just commit to it, I could probably sell all of my casting and trolling baits and pay off the second mortgage. Pick up a couple of each color of the Bondy Baits and catch just as many fish... Maybe more... Hats off to the committment.

Thanks man. A few years ago, my arms hurt so bad and from my forearms to my fingertips were numb from what I suspect had to do with jigging the 7oz bait for 26 days straight. I think I had carpal tunnel, but I backed off and did stretches and it went away luckily....Jon
