| Perhaps slightly off target with respect to fish per day, but I caught 3 fish in ten minutes out of just four casts and had all fish strike the moment that the bait hit the water. The fourth cast had a strike too but the fish missed the bait on a pretty impressive boil. While releasing fish #3 I noticed a father and young son 40 yards away having a real struggle to deal with the release on another musky they were not even fishing for. I decided to do the right thing for them and for the fish and spent quite a lot of time getting a fish to go that they held far too long on the floor inside their boat. Totally not their fault because they were pan fishing with no intent or experience with musky. Anyway, by the time I was done with all the photos and finally seeing their fish swim away somebody shut the window just as tightly as is possible. And, yea, it was on Pewaukee Lake---the place where dreams come true! |

Location: Warroad, Mn | It is very common to see 20+ follows per day on the LOTWs. This poll sort of gives me a little different perspective of what a great fishery the LOTWs is! Doug Johnson

In the Old Days, on Webster, 80-100 follows was not unusual, some days!!
Ya it was pretty stupid and they loved looking at glide baits. Some times more than one follow on one cast. For me, when we had those crazy number follow days we were lucky if we boated one(usually @ sunset on topwater). The best days, the only fish you saw, were the ones that hit the net (or in my case, the ones I lost). |
