Posts: 7010 Location: Northwest Chicago Burbs | The GAUNTLET has been thrown: Saturday Me vs. the Old Man (Steve Worrall) Him - on MAJESTIC Pelican Lake in Oneida County, WI. Me - on the BEAUTIFUL Fox Chain of Lakes in the wilderness of Northern IL. The Challenge: head to head, who wins...and the older gentleman is spotting me 12" (hey now). The bet: loser takes on sucker rigging for a day next fall in the cold and pain of fishing NW Ontario on Eagle Lake out of Andy Myers Lodge on October 30th, 2022! Who else misses MatchFISHING? | ||

Good luck to both of you. Let us know how it goes. | |||

If you have not fished with Steve Worrall....or if you have....you still may not know that Steve usually fishes with focus and at the pace of a tree sloth on qualudes. BUT, don't let this fool you, when he "fishes angry" it's scary stuff. | ||

Posts: 32802 Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | Yeah, it's obviously going to be a tough battle I will probably lose, but I will give it my all. | ||

Posts: 7010 Location: Northwest Chicago Burbs | ToddM - 11/4/2021 12:33 AM I would gladly lose a tournament to set the hook on some sucker fish on eagle. To be fair (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jv7jcciKB_s) I pretty much rig and set up all the suckers when I fish with Dad, so this is just me working towards a day of not working. And when he's up on the sucker, I try to find the pike he loves so dearly. Oh, PIKE don't count in this contests....neither do catfish or carp, so N.WI vs IL we're kinda even on that. | ||

Simple answer: the sucker is yours so long as it's alive. You lose it on the hookset, muskie/pike/manic walleye eats it, sucker goes to the next person in line. Or if you catch a fish it's next man up! | ||

I actually could do that from my boat with a pic in pic Aqua-Vu deployed as well/ Slamr, not so much. I lost a nice one at the boat on a creature. No other action from muskies. | ||

I actually could do that from my boat with a pic in pic Aqua-Vu deployed as well/ Slamr, not so much. I lost a nice one at the boat on a creature. No other action from muskies. I too blanked. One late follow that gave me the flip off. My greatest victory though was not wasting $35 on suckers. Go me! | ||

Posts: 32802 Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | I didn't buy any suckers either, seemed like a lot of money and would have had to travel a bit. | ||

Posts: 92 Location: Eau Claire, WI | Yeah it sure does suck when you buy them at $10 plus a crack, get to the lake and a couple are floating before you even get on the water. I rigged a cooler with a battery operated aerator. Put a hole in the cooler lid, made a bracket for it, cost me about $30. Probably could make it cheaper if you got the cooler at a yard sale vs the store. Sure has helped. Edited by FishinXtreme 11/10/2021 3:36 PM | ||
