Location: Kinkaid Lake, IL | Was only out for a 1/2 day trip. Water temps up to 72 in most of the lake Cold North wind with scattered clouds. Not to many muskie guys out today. Client nailed a 38.5 on a llungen tail right off the bat. I blew one on a glide bait. Then he pops a 3lb bass on a pacemaker right after dark. Fun day to be on the water! |

| October 9, I fished for 3 hours. Began at 11:00 and fished until 2:00. Caught a mid-30's inch fish on a suick. Saw a number of people fishing. Crappie fishermen were complaining that the bite was off.
