| Happy Hooker,
I can see why so many people fish at night for musky now, it's hyped in all the magazines, including Musky Hunter and Esox Angler (obviously because it works!). Which end of Vermilion were you on? I'm coming up to the West end the week of Aug 11 and may have to re-think my plans...thanks

Good idea.
Some guys I know threw everything but cowgirls at night and did better than some throwing nothing but. |

Location: Pewaukee, Wisconsin | I usually can't throw a bait everyone else is throwing, thats just in my head for some reason. I'll be happy to be the only one throwing a Shumway Giant Flasher, the big girls at Eagle sure liked it.. |

been there done that last week...you will not be the only one throwing those I saw them for sale in one of the local gas stations...
Those Giant flashers are big baits...Id say 1.5times harder then a cowgirl to bring in...not bad slow, but if you want to burn in you are in for a hard time!
