If it's your favorite thing to do, than your Priorities are Really messed up !
And you need to get a life or a really good shrink......

Location: Lake St.Clair | Top 5 for sure one of the best feeling seeing a fish hammer a bait boatside!
One of the more exciting things you can do with your clothes on. |

| Yep...favorite thing to do. On the water about 4 days a week.
So as you can see..my priorities are messed up and I have no life. |

| My favorite thing to do when the season is open. I also enjoy bowhunting the rut, ice fishing, spring walleye run, and chasing gobblers! |

Location: Wakefield, MI | For sure. I bass and bluegill fish in the summer but they take a back seat to musky. I gave up golf years ago, my RC planes have been in the basement for 5 years, I've had my motorcycle out three times this year. |

| It's the one thing, outside of family, that enjoy the most. It's also the most frustrating. |

| My youngest daughter, who is in her third year of medical school, was picked yesterday to present at a major medical conference, my youngest grandson scored five goals at his soccer game last Sunday....That, and all the other stuff in my family is first...and favorite! But, aside from that...it's musky fishing! |

| Aside from the family stuff and smashing red heads in the spring its one of my favorites. Note I have only done it once but since that time I have spent a small fortune on gear and have some trips planned this fall  |

| It's definitely my favorite hobby when the lake isn't frozen. I couldn't ask for a better way to clear my mind after a long day of work. |

Location: Lake "y" cause lake"x" got over fished | it is tied for first with three others.
Musky Fishing, Ice fishing, Pistol shooting. Those are the top three. Could not put one in front of another. Defiantly all tired for first. |
|
| |
|
| It is by far my favorite hobby, not first priority. Goes like this: fish, fish, fish, met wife, some fishing, marriage, some fishing, kids, kinda fish, kids, kids kids kids, fish a little again now. My last two 40 inchers came in 2007. Last 40 inch follow was in 2012. I get by on the memories, but my passion is to cast when I can. |

| There are times where there's nothing better than sitting in a boat blowing through 2 dozen leeches in a few hours and catching two dozen fish in the process. There are times when there's nothing better than sitting on the pier with a beer and watching a slip bobber knowing you need one more fish for a good supper and you've got 4 more hours of daylight. I never understood the guys who say they don't fish for anything but muskies anymore. There's just too much fun to be had out there fishing for everything else. |

| Definitely not my favorite "thing" to do in life. My favorite is....well, not appropriate to say on a family fishing site but you get the point. As far as fishing and species. Muskie was my favorite until I hooked into several 6-7 foot 150#+ Tarpon casting or sight fishing to them. Blows Muskie fishing away..hands down. I'm now going back for my 3rd and 4th time this winter and spring. Much more to life than Muskie. |

Location: WI | I wish in a way that I could enjoy fishing the way that I did as a kid, for anything that swims. Now I can't help but think about Muskies any time I'm on the water. Can't seem to think I should be slingin baits. Gotta put that time in! It's a curse. But I love it! |

Jerome, Couldn't you say the same thing about the other 4 or 5?
Prop,. Here's my take on This question:......And my top priorities,. Which are tied into favorite things to do......
Wife/sex,...If Mama ain't happy, your life will Suck...
Kids,...I have seven,.. love doing stuff with them.( they all like to muskie fish)
I love my job,.... I work way too much,...
Sports,..... Golf, football, hockey, Basketball, BASEBALL, Shooting.....dirt biking /4 wheeling ..
Muskie fishing.......
With that said,. I probably muskie fish about 500 hrs a yr. for the last 10 yr. on avg.
No one asked about Hobbies...... Is Muskie fishing a hobby or a THING to do?
If I were single Muskies would be #2 behind S..

| It's between musky fishing and riding the Harley the wife does both with me so it makes for a better marriage, musky fishing in Canada less stress more time to let your mind go Harley trips can't let your mind wonder as much on the bike but a lot cheaper. Everything else don't care about except our beach vacation in the middle of January with 100 of our best friends!! No kids at home it's our time! |
