Ben donated a Guide Trip to the Muske Nutz Social Outing on April 7th at the Thirsty Whale, which I was fortunate to win during the raffle. I called Ben right away hoping to do some pre-WI opener fishing in IL. After a few accommodations, we selected Saturday April 21st on the Fox Chain.
Ben thought of a well developed plan of casting and trolling. We met at 4:45 a.m. b/c he wanted to hit a few hot spots before the FRV Tournament started. We had our first action around 10:30 when Ben had a nice fattie follow in...but a no go. Later we saw a 2 people in the boat ahead of us figure 8ing, as we approached Ben positioned the boat along the inside weed line and after a few casts I set the hooks and landed a healthy 38.
From the word we heard from others in the tournament, we were 4 out of 100+ musky fisherman to put a fish in the net. Also noted, there was a Bass and Walleye tournament on Saturday and then add the 1st summer time pleasure boaters - as you know the Fox Chain can and is a zoo. Ben kept a positive attitude all day and entertained us through trolling lessons and funny stories.
I would recommend Ben to anyone looking for a guide on the Fox Chain and or SE WI Lakes. He is a hard-core hunter and will chase all day and night to Guarantee a fish.

Andy, is there anything you don't win? Drawing at the Hulbert/Stealth booth, Lax repro on your pig from last summer, a Ben Kueng guide trip. What's next? Have you bought your Power Ball ticket??? Nice way to get the season started!

Andy,

I need your tournament schedule so I can find something besides fishing to do those days.

Andy, you bring new meaning to having a horseshoe up your a&%, or is that just luck? Congrats Andy!

I was with Andy and Ben on this trip and I would say that if someone was interested in fishing with a guide, Ben is your man. He knew the water and the pattern and put us on the fish. Odds are that we should have spent a day and a half in the boat getting tennis elbow yet we snapped a pic and had some action (and lets not forget about that crazy walleye I had to yank my bait away from!) Ben fished us hard from 5:00am to 7:00 pm and he was donating his time, I wonder how hard he wroks when he actually gets paid! Thanks Ben, I learned alot from you and Andy.

I have known Ben for a while now, and let me tell you,he is a true stand up guy!
Awesome person to know, and yes he will work you regardless of the day your having. My boat or his,great conversation lots of laughs and a good friend!

Whether hes taking over the trolling motor or kickin the smooth jazz on the sucker runs...Ben will keep your knowledge tight and your attitude positive for the muskies.

Book em' Danno!

See ya soon bro!
