| I caught the musky below (44in, 26lbs) on Eagle Lake (ON) during the week of 8/25/13. I was casting a purple #10 bucktail into shallow water on a rocky windward shore and the fish bit in the figure eight. The time of day was mid-afternoon and it was windy and cloudy with fronts moving across the lake and it was the morning after the first full moon. Fishing was tough and I casted for four days before finally getting a fish to eat. Each day we would raise 2 or 3 fish but they would sink away before following the bait into the eight. I got some follows during the week on gold Giant Flatsticks, magnum rapala (bl/silver/wh) and reg Medusas/Dawgs (gold/walleye) but no biters. On the day that I caught the fish I had 12 followers in a four hour period around two islands. We couldnt fish around these two islands once without seeing at least a couple fish charging out from the rocks to check out my bucktail. A great week overall and I wish I was still up there!
