I agree, that much fishing knowledge in one place and nobody could get that hook out? Good position and actually a good hook to pull because of it's size. That would have been an easy one. the next time you take a 7/0 in the leg, give me a call and i'll come right over to pull it out the "easy way"... i decided to get back up on the horse that bucked me, so after replacing the hook that was in my leg, i tied on the BS Willy monster creeper that stuck me last night and put it to work on one of the spots we'd seen a nice fish earlier in the week. karma payed me back with a 51.75" beauty on the BS Willy monster. after a few celebratory brews and some dinner, we headed back out and revisted the fishing spot where i got stuck the night before. karma repayed me again with a fat 45" that ate the 10" Weagle.

| Coincidence or Karma..? M1st moderators getting hooked at M1st outting and catching nice fish..? I distinctly remember Worrall having to cut a 5/0 out of my finger at the first Cass Lake event about 6-7 years ago...  Looks like a great trip guys...wishin' I was there instead of in the office typing this. | |||

| How many people are on the outing and of those how many have caught a fish? Sounds like at least 1 person is doing extremely good with 5 fish over 41" wow! | |||

Posts: 281 Location: ROckford IL | Im getting stumped to the ground out here, both me and Porterhouse are seeing some big fish following our baits but we just cant seem to get them to open their mouths, we did have a couple chances early in the week but we did not connect, we just don't have the Mojo this week, Lambeau and others really have that mojo to make them muskies eat, we are seeing plenty of big fish but getting them to eat is a whole other story, I guess you cant win em all, maybe one of these years I will stick a 50"er, all I can do is keep trying, the lake is amazing out here anyways, it sure beats being in Rockford IL, I am sad that I have to leave tommarow, we have one more chance at fishing tonight, right now its high pressure and partly sunny, we will be back on the hunt after the awards dinner, I win the Skunk award for the outting....lol P.S Joe at SpringBay has a top notch resort, its one of the best I ever stayed at. Lambeau put together a great outting and the planning was very well done. Everyone here is good people and I had a blast regardless if I catch fish or not, Porterhouse went out of his way to try to put us on fish, he is a great partner, My head will be hanging low tommarow when I have to leave this place  Edited by Bigman 7/25/2008 12:01 PM | ||

| The 2008 MuskieFirst outing presented by Spring Bay Resort wrapped up this evening with a fish fry from the Landing restaurant just down the road. All participants were served an all you can eat fish fry with all you can drink, courtesy of Spring Bay Resort. Congratulations to Joe Calhoun (aka Joe Cal) for winning the largest fish award and taking home a free weeks stay at Spring Bay Resort for his use anytime, a Stowmaster net, and $50 worth of lures from Tackle Industries. Fishing was tough today with winds switching out of the west 20+ mph and partly cloudy and clear. Fish were seen throughout the day but no takers as of this evenings dinner. MuskieFirst would like to thank all who donated prizes and for everyone that made this outing what it was. The folks at Spring Bay Resort are first class and I would highly recommend anyone interested in visiting Lake Vermilion to check out their website:(http://www.springbayresort.com/). Get a hold of Joe or Steve Amundson. They can truly make your trip a memorable one. Complete image gallery: http://muskie.outdoorsfirst.com/board/photos/show-album.asp?albumid...

Posts: 2865 Location: Brookfield, WI | Merckid - 7/26/2008 2:17 AM There 34 participants that included one from Utah, two from Ohio, one from Pennsylvania and others from across the midwest. I believe their were 18 fish boated before dinner tonight. Most fish came on big bucktails and topwater. So a little more than half a fish per guy. Who claims the head and who claims the tail? If you claim the tail you can squeeze a little more length out of it because you could pinch. The head end, however, is much more fearsome and impressive. That looked like a pretty good time up there. Good work, everybody. Kevin I'm with the guy who thinks we have a fire distinguisher in the hallway. | ||

| thank you to Joe and Steve and everyone else at Spring Bay Resort along with all the other sponsors who made sure everyone who came went home with something. i was blown away by the quality of the resort and the great job they did hosting all of us while we were there. driving home today i told my wife, we WILL be going up there. if you're heading to Vermilion, do yourself a favor and book with Spring Bay. it was great to see everyone and put some faces to names of new friends, as well as spend some time again renewing things with some old friends. thanks to everyone who showed up and shared the fun. it seemed like everyone was having a good time, the outing events were well attended, and the fishing ain't half bad up there either... here's a few more pics from the last night out on the water.
