| Had around 25-30 by June and have zero in quite a bit of time on the water and a week in Canada since then. I think it took less time to catch fish this spring than it has to catch none this summer...still love being on the water though. I think my number go do down as the year progresses as I enjoy myself more and fish in a more laid back manner...go figure...I will try to get back on the ball tomorrow..Ben |

Location: Marshfield, WI | I am at 19. My goal is to beat last year in size and numbers, which was 31 and 43". My biggest this year is 41.5". I'm also in a slump. I haven't caught a musky since my Canada trip in mid-August. I've had my chances though.

Location: Orland Park | I've got 3 (41, 42, 43) in about 16 hours of fishing this year.............Both trips have been family trips and spent most of the time putting crawlers or leeches on rigs for everyone to enjoy. Maybe 10 bluegill, some sunnies, 4 or so walleyes, a couple slimes, some rock bass and quite a few perch.
Doing a trip in November with the boys, so hopefully should add to the total, and maybe a late September trip to the Big V. |

Location: Wausau | Around 18-20 over 40" and 4 over 50" - like some others, the majority of fish came from non-WI waters. Hope to add 35lb fish to the list this fall. |

| I got 2. But I only fished like 4 times so far. I'm confident both numbers will start increasing soon.

Location: Northwest Chicago Burbs | Judge Smails: "but, how do you measure yourself against other golfers?"
Ty Webb: "by height:"
My year in a nutshell....better than some, worse than others, a few nice fish, not as many as I'd like. I've broken a ton of gear, and had it all replaced under warranty. Got the wife a fish, she got to see some bigguns. Only really been upset one time in who I took fishing, and other than that, I've shared the boat with some great friends from the past, and hopefully for the future. Digging on the Tuffy with much shovel, and with this rig, I can get my (usually poor) boat control that much better. I havent fished as much new water as I'd planned, but the year is only now hitting my favorite time to fish.
Fall is coming, and it's much more fun to figure out how to fish as much as possible, the best way possible and to have the most fun possible, than to worry about how many fish I've caught. |

Haven't fished much this year with my daughter being on her feet now ,and my son judt wanting to " haul booty " he say's ( he's 4 , he only say's a$$ when mom's not around , can't get him to stop saying it but my dad thinks it's great !! ) but I think I'm at 4 so far . I'm with Slamr , love fishing in the fall , watching everything change is cool ... especially huge bucks in the water !! I can say ( Muskie Mike will definitely agree ) I've scared alot of bigguns away this year myself !! Having fun though , and I know I'm doing something right seeing the fish that I have this year , thanks to everybody here on this website . It's helped me out alot , lot's of knowledge here and still alot for me to learn . Looking forward to it !!! I can't wait for the P.I. outing , hopefully slime the Tuffy with a fatty !!!
