I am Daryl Roche aka Walking_Holy out of Naperville IL. I fish everywhere from Kinkaid, Manitowish Chain, Minoqua, Big St, Big Arb, Mad Town Chain, Cass Lake and whatever else is in between. I am currently running a 1989 Champion 201 with 200 Merc!

| Joe Mellott from Streamwood, IL (NW Suburbs of Chicago)
LB was a handle earned by pandering for the backs of peoples boats with lunch and gas money, thus I was everybody else's Lunch_Box. Those days are over and I'm seeking a new handle as I have finally got off my butt and bought a boat. 2000 Triton TR19 w/150 Opti.
Typically fish "Lake X", Madtown, Chip, Vermilion, the Chain and several points between. This year I hope to explore some new water in Central IL and maybe Central WI.
ps. Lake X has been closed indefinately due to a highly contageous virus found in the water. Since no cure is known for the virus which can kill humans, nobody can even speculate when it will reopen. |

| Guess I missed the role call too. Wasn't a member when this thread was first posted. Most happy to be a part of it now.
My name is Mike Kagel, I live in Algoma, WI northeast of Green Bay on the shores of Lake Michigan. I fish L.M. for trout and salmon and venture up north to Vilas county for musky hunts. Caught my first musky 35 years ago and have been hooked on them ever since.
My boat is a 20' Wellcraft cuddy cabin more suited for fishing Lake Michigan so I either rent a boat for musky fishing or go with a guide.
I'll be back up in northern WI this weekend night-fishing the full moon period. Look forward to each and every trip.
Tight lines to one and all....

Not a whole lot of Musky fishing (generally speaking - all we have are Tigers)here, but there's enough. All the lakes with Muskies are electric only. I have a Lowe 14' Jonboat w/trailer and a Coleman Crawdad for the smaller waters. Not a whole lot of Tiger/Musky fisherman here. Merry Christmas! |

| Greetings to all my fellow muskie bretheren!!
My name is Don and I make the MN Metro area my muskie fishing home.
You can find me most weekend evenings fishing in my little tin can, which is a white 02 Alumacraft 145 LTD w/ 25hp Merc and all the muskie fixins and fully muskie-christened.
I spend most of my time on Harriet, White Bear and Tonka (dead sea for me). Last season was my first chasing slime.
Next year = more lakes, more fish, at least one trip to Canada and trying to fend off my wife for most fish in the boat. [;)] [8)]

| Hey all, whats up. My name is Nate Lambrecht im 20 years old (look like 16) and I'm from Dekalb, Illinois. However, right now I'm a junior at the University of Illinois down in Champaign-Urbana, Illinois. I mostly fish Shabbona Lake, Carlton, Fox Chain, as well as Little Green and other Green lake area waters when I'm up visiting my grandma. I fish out of a luxurious 16 foot northwood aluminum boat (red rustoleum paint) that I picked up for 500 bucks when I was 15, with a mean 10 hp merc on the back. At least its pulled by something cool, a silver 2002 Dodge Dakota 4x4 with everything. See you all at the shows. |
