Location: Pewaukee, Wisconsin | Ben, good to see your stepping up to fish Okauchee. I thought you would for sure fish your main lake(Oconomowoc).
Or are you looking to add additional lakes to help gang up on the Pewaukee crew.
Either way your going to be chewing up that tough old shoe you were talking about and choking on it. LOL
As for a little wager---We will talk Friday night, bring your wallet. Let the fun begin!!!
As far as the Muskies Inc chapter tourny, that will not be part of this. Only 1 fish was caught in that Muskies Inc tourny last year from Saturday to Sunday at noon.
We will have a group of names that are fishing each lake and that will be the compitition. Pewaukee vs Okauchee

Location: Southeast Wisconsin | I figured maybe it would even things out acre wise, since pewaukee has enough spots to park almost every boat in SE WI and Okauchee has only 17. I doubt it will matter though, seeing how you guys dont have much of a crew to gang up on in the first place...Just a bunch of old geezers from what I can see. If guys get some young blood on your squad you MIGHT have a shot at second place...LOL
Gimme a call Brett (I lost all my phone numbers)
Only 55 days to go |

| beaver, you sound like a very knowledge angler, also seem rather easy going; being a rookie i think i could benefit much from your acquaintance, if you're ever looking for company in your boat maybe we could hook up. thanks, don |

Location: Pewaukee, Wisconsin | Ok Ben, since it's my birthday today I will be nice and give you guys other lakes. Okauchee and Oconomowoc against Pewaukee. Now there is not a chance for anyone to say Pewaukee Lake has the upper hand.
We now have the most presured lake agaist the mighty Okauchee and the sleeper Oconomowoc Lake, you got a miss match. Are you happy now Ben? LOL You guys got JOEL the machine on your team. I may have to convert him over to the Extreme Team.
Pewaukee crew will still kick a$$, I have faith in the boys we got here. |

Location: Brookfield, WI | Hey Professor Koepp, maybe you need to start worrying. I nailed down my seat for the opener. And guess what?
Joel is so confident in his abilities that he's taking ME in his boat. Seems he's willing to tie one arm behind his back. I'm thinking we'll catch the larger twin sisters of the one he put me on last November.
Probably by about 9:00 am.
Looks like Smokey's on Friday night might be pretty interesting as the contest gets organized. I hope we can get a lot of guys there on Friday, because it looks like its going to be really different there from last year.
More on that late this week.
Kevin
Dry rubbed and slow smoked. |

Location: Pewaukee, Wisconsin | Kevin, I never worry about the uncontrolable. What I can tell you is Friday night will be very fun and full of hype, beer, food and good fiends.
As for the outcome of the Pewaukee Lake vs Okauchee. I would hope you guys can keep up with the Pewaukee Boys. I know I am going to cut loose and score a bunch of muskie in my boat. Good luck to all the others who are going to fish on Okauchee.
I am sure Joel will get a fish or two with the Hopefull One but that will only allow them to MAYBE hang against the Extreme One. Let the smack talk roll...... |

Location: Racine, Wi | Mike, I decided that I will fish with one hand behind my back and only use jigs and flies. That ought to even it out. 
Now, what happens if we use a 40" size limit? Would that even the score? I don't think that we can catch anything under 40 on the Krotch, and I don't think you can catch anything OVER 40 on Pewee. Hmmmmm, that sounds like some smack. heh heh heh. I'm ready for the opener. As the East Comptone Clovers say, "Bring It!!" (too much TBS this weekend) |

Location: Pewaukee, Wisconsin | I got two that size last opener. Well a 39 3/4 on Saturday to take everyones money in the big fish pot. Didn't I take a $10 spot from you also Joel. Sunday the extreme rig got a 40, 38, 36 and 35. All after a 11am start.
The Big O-krotchie will give up a few and kick a few guys in the a$$. Most will be telling story of the ones they could have, should have, caught. Even on a smaller fish lake we will take the crotch boys down. Those big fatties will tease most and maybe a cross eyed fattie will get stuck by a bass guy and you guys can ask for a quick picture. |

Dude, that's a great idea. You better hope we don't have a nice and sunny windless day dude. Cause if we do, I'm gonna be calling you every half hour.
So by my figures, this is how you scored last year then Mike:
39.5 = 0 points
38 = 0 points
36 = 0 points
35 = 0 points
40 = Lucky
That's not gonna cut it this year. heh heh heh

So now it's two lakes against one and the fish have got to be over 40? What happened to lake vs lake?

Location: Racine, Wi | Mike, I'll still have to charge my phone. The wife we be calling 5000 times asking when I'm coming home. LOL And asking how bad we're crushing the Pewaukee Crew. ha ha ha haaaaaaaaa
But in all seriousness, I think that as long as Kevin wears his pink thong again (man is he cute in that), we should have an outstanding day. |

| There were only a few muskies boated last year on Okauchee on opening day last year. Nasty cold. IMTT team of the year Team Kev (Kevin Moore/Kevin Rand) had a 37" and 42" by 6:30 a.m. Having won tournaments on each of these lakes - Team Kev will be on Okauchee this year - seperate boats. I'll pass on the Pewaukee nursery for awhile. I will be guiding Pete Barber - Muskies Inc. International treasurer. I think it should be biggest fish - you want numbers go to Pewaukee. See ya out there. Okauchee has come a long way since I let that first one go on opening day 1983. |

Good to see you step up to the plate Kevin. If it was biggest fish I would go to Okauchee and hang suckers all day. Thats a no brainer. With two fish by 6:30am last year I sure hope you can post a few pictures this opener to help out your lake. That way we know it was not just a fluke opener last year for you. LOL:-O
As for the Pewaukee vs Okauchee why does everyone want to add other lakes like Oconomowoc and change it to largest fish? Okauchee can keep up with Pewaukee by points easily. You just got to catch them.
What is wrong with using the Muskies Inc point system that rewards you for larger fish with way more points. With all the very good sticks who are already going to fish Okauchee do you need a handycap? Are you telling me that Okauchee can't keep up to Pewaukee in points(numbers vs larger fish) when we get done with the Opener weekend points totals.
All I was looking to do is get some friendly lake against lake compition going between friends and internet associates.
So, lets get the friendly ripping, smack talk, and lake bashing going.........
Kevin, your a good stick and have fished Okauchee for years. You might beable to help the others come up with a few fish. I don't want to hear about your "guide job" excuse as to why you couldn't help with a few fish. LOL;)
Also, remember that all the Muskies Inc people from the Milwaukee Chapter vs the Flatlanders will be out on Pewaukee Lake. That is a lot of presure for us to fish against. Now take all the other muskie fishermen who are going to be pounding Pewaukke Lake. Okauchee will no way have that much muskie fishing presure. Maybe more bass fishermen.
Bottom line is: We meet at Smokey's Muskie Shop on Friday afternoon for some smack talk, beer, food and fun. Smokey's will be shutting down at 10pm. Everyone can spill over to the Waterfront for more pre-fishing prep talks and fun.
Pewaukee vs Okauchee We will figure out the points after all the fish are counted and posted. A picture would be great for the results post but this is a friendly tourny. If it's in the best interest of the fish, no picture is needed.
I will add anyone who posts here to the list if they post which lake they will be fishing. Please check back to see who is fishing where and add your name to the list. I will edit the list as people post their real names, screen names and lake they will be fishing on.

-add up total MI points by lake (s)
-divide that total by # of anglers on that lake (s)
*highest number wins. |

Everyone planning to fish Waukesha County, or even those just willing to attend the Friday gathering, should keep their eyes on this board early this coming week for more info. To use a phrase I worked to death last year....
"I have a plan."
And it's a good one. Just a detail or two to iron out. Wait 'til you see the rig I'll be towing.
Kevin
Stay tuned. |

| It's been four openers in a row that we scored - last year I scored trolling a crankbait - Kevin Rand's was caught casting through a school of baitfish with a crankbait.The year before (2005 opener) we were successful on Oconomowoc.
K Rand will be on and off the water early - can't stay all day. I'll be out all day with my lucky client - he's boated a couple of 46 - 47 inchers with me.
