Now I know what you do on your lunch hour! I gave you enough time to post, was about to do it myself. You left out the part about HOW fat that fish was. It was built like an oxygen bottle Later One more thing, you left the Musky POOP in my boat! I thought as much as you played with it all day it would be gone! HA! |

Location: Monee, Illinois | Did not fish but was down there this weekend to see SIU win on a last second shot WHAT A GAME. Myself and my chicky went there and climbed the spillway. Talked to a guy in a Red Lund Pro V 3 guys in the boat at the launch said they fished all day and nothing. They where also from chicago. Nice guys, said they started out casting but eyes froze so went to trolling.
GO DAWGS GO!!

Location: New Baden IL | Watch out for the Red Dog, he'll take some POOP on a Cracker.
We didn't put a tape on it, but I'd bet my last buck it was 18" around!

| Water temp was 41 on main lake. SIU had a boat out for the transmiter study and saw two muskie boats out. I stuck to two main schools of shad today. On school was about a 1/4 acre and upwards of fifteen verticle. Huge school. There was about thirty seagulls plus my self fishing this shad mass. Everytime I would troll through I had to clear shad off every hook! Right before dawn I had two fish mess with my emotions. I was twiching a 103 shad crain bait over a small shallow school and a small 35"+- rolled my bait. I through out a purple tinsel bucktail with orange blade. A quick follow and a boat side swirl then she was off. The shad starting balling up near the surface so I thought....Hmmm top water in january. I put on a tallywaker and got a huge swirl about thirty feet out. After 11 days this month with no fish ........ Well, i go another day fishless becouse both seemed to not visit my beckman net today.
Oh Well....#*^@ MUSKIES |

| Thanks for the info, I have been trying to get on the water for the last two days. I got to the lake Monday and found that some prototype cranks I had made were gone, so I turned around and went looking for them. Sat the box they were in on the back deck while I took a seat out and left them there! I made new ones and will be out tomorrow. You the man dude, eleven days and you still chase them in the worst time of the year! Well, you are one day closer. Hope you get a monster for sticking with it. Later |
