Naughty Naughty, Hope you're not crossing state lines with those. It's illegal in MN for bait to cross state line!

Unhappiness is getting a big fine!

Good luck though!

Mike,

Good luck. Actually Happiness is going out with your son, and watching a muskie chase a sucker, seeing the muskie devour the sucker, and seeing your son set the hook, and land his new PB. 42" muskie on a guide trip that I won from June Jam. Special thanks goes to Ryan from Muskiejunkies guide service.

Lance

congrats Lance, sounds like a great experience shared!

i was out fishing with my father-in-law today, on a picture-perfect late fall morning...only a cool 19 degrees and thick fog. when my turn came up on the suckers, a nice muskie was good enough to cooperate. those moments are always better when they're shared with family and friends.

Hey Mike,

If that fish is on Potato Lake, I must have missed that they have muskies in that lake. I vacation up that direction every summer. At least send some people to Isle of Dreams, and say it was on Bad Axe lake. The only way to get on that lake is through the resort. I usually stay across the street from there.

Dude, for the suckers, happiness is not a quick-strike harness. For them, the price is death.

The sucker... A martyr for the belly of a sucker.

May the muskie gods look down upon your suckers and bless them with lots of energy, liveliness, and long life (for those in the baitwell..) Burn some incense (no...not your fingers on a buddy heater) and spread the ashes on your favorite spot, say a prayer, do a little dance, make a little love...get down tonight!!

Good luck Mike!!

Steve

Is that a dig at somebody questioning size in another post that I'm missing or a sarcastic thing from somebody who doesn't sucker fish? If it's the latter, you're definitely missing out.

Mike,

Which one of those beautiful quick set rig decorations was the lucky winner for the 4-8?

My guess is the light colored big one in picture 2. I pick those whenever I can!

Hopeful is serious. He tracks sizes a little too closely, but some people are like that. We just go with what he says as the man is very accurate in his sucker caught fish size reductions. He is quite fair in his dimensions as well so we allow his nonsense to flourish on our boards.

Also, Hopeful's largest fish to date was a sucker fed fish that he so politely measured in under 50"s due to this fish being caught on musky sausage.

Nice fish Mike!!

That will be four years ago this coming Monday, I believe. Time flies. You must be getting old. LOL.

Thanks for having my back, beanpole.
