| What would you say? I say every lake would have 50" in it! |

| Pretty sure every lake with Muskies may still have a 50 left in it  |
|
| |
|
| 1. No angler would ever go home for the day without hooking a fish.
2. No river, including the Ohio, would be too dirty to support a population. |
|
| |
|
| 1. MN would have another 20 lakes stocked
2. musky fishermen would have a little more etiquette on the water and not cut other guys off or come in on them on a tiny spot
3. fish would only eat topwaters! |

|
| The Minnesota DNR would require guides to purchase a $1500 permit for each lake they guide on and get personal financial gain from. All money would go to stocking the lake. |

| it already is a perfect Muskie world, be thankful for what you have. If all lakes had muskies and i caught a muskie every time out I would quickly find a different hobby. Its the relatively low numbers and the fact that you have to "work" to catch them that draws me.....that and muskies happen to inhabit some of the nicest lake in the north country. If you want to catch a 45"+ fish every day and never see a boat save your pennies for a fly-in trip for pike to the NWT's or N. Sask. |

| In a perfect muskie world, the internet would still be a place where people went to share information and talk about fishing instead of criticizing each other, bashing guides, lakes, resorts, products and everything else they think is "wrong" in muskie fishing. |

Location: New Hope MN | I would own my own 1500 acre lake. |
|
| |
|
Location: Twin Cities | MN would add 500+ more muskie lakes, that would alleviate much of the internet hush hush i'd imagine... |
|
| |
|
| I'd be independantly wealthy and could spend all the time I wanted fishing for Skis where ever and whenever I wanted. Is that too much to ask? |

Every angler would get a kid hooked on fishing that isn't a son/daughter. |

| Wanna add this one...TIGERS reproduced! Dynamite would be legal to use as bait and power trolling for all bodies of water! hurrah hurrah |
|
| |
|
| i'd be able to spend a couple weeks at herbies each year with my closest friends ... and emails and phones would just leave us all alone while we were there. |

Woodstock was 40 years ago. Keep your ray of sunshine free love can't we all share long dirty hair attitude on the commune. It ain't the Summer of Love. Hippy.

| Everyday would be overcast, pre - frontal and 75 degrees. Millfoil wouldn't exist, jet skis would be illegal, and every fish would fight like a 35 incher. |

Location: Hugo, MN | If I spent a bunch of money on a new bait or twelve, I'd at least catch a fish on it. |

| In a perfect muskie world I would have not caught 2 fish in 30 minutes my first time out with one of them being 51" which in turn has completley 100% hooked me on this flippin' virus and I would still have some money in my checking account because it wasn't all in my bait box, boat, or rod locker. hahahaha. aaaaahhh...just kiddin! Being new to this I'm just happy to get to chase these fish any time I feel like it at more than a dozen lakes within an hour of my house and share the time with my new muskie buddies - to me thats perfect. |

| I can stop buying more lures and feel fine about what i all ready have. I could huck baits up to 55 years old, I'm 43 now, only been fishing skies for 9 years. |

| I'd invite all the gentlemen I've met on this site (starting with Steve W & Brett W) for an expenses paid, long weekend of muskie fishing at my Canadian resort. Then you'd all do the same for me.
Just a thought.

Location: Sw Pennsylvania | I would only need one lure in my tackle box in about 6 different colors that would always produce a fish. And a few drinks after a day of fishing wouldn't cost me a small fortune at the local watering hole.. |

Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | Erieboy, you are on...any time. I have tons of room at the Hideout, just call me and set a day, and I'll get you on the water on some of my favorite little lakes. It's tough for me to get away for a 'vacation', but I'd love to try that water.
In a perfect Muskie world, I'd have a job that allowed me to meet some of the coolest people on the globe. My wife would like to fish, and would fish muskies with me all over the country. I'd be able to attend Outings on water like Vermilion and Presque Isle and Wabigoon and LOTW, and fish with good friends. My sons and grandsons would love to fish. I'd meet new friends on the web, and some day wet a line with them.
I guess it's perfect. At least for me! |

Location: New Berlin,Wisconsin,53151 | I would never have down time spent on a backlash, my spinner baits wouldn't get dangled in my DGG's, my bloody mary mug would remain full with all the fixin's and the beer chaser would keep cold.

| We wouldn't have these stupid internet arguments about:
1. Louis Spray
2. How big you think the fish really is...(the guy lied)
3. How the fish was handled, released etc etc
4. A person keeping a fish
5. Whether Tom Gelb should roll troll or not (he's a great guy!!!)
6. I'm better than you.....my reel is better.....my lure is better
I think you get my point. |
