| anybody else have any luck this weekend? i fished for 3 hours Friday morning with my father-in-law. when the sucker alarm went off slow and steady, i said, "weeds." he checked anyway and a slow, steady hand brought a white silhouette into view, "it's a fish! set the hook!" a couple minutes later, he'd landed this nice 39" - his first muskie since 1984!!!! there's nothing quite like fishing with your family.

Posts: 1245 Location: Madtown, WI | Hey congrats on getting your Dad a fish Mike!! Lisa and I took the boat up north this weekend to fish a little between deer hunts. Hunting stunk but did get out for 2.5 hours on Fri as well. We had to break about 3/4-1 of ice to get out. The water was murky from turning over still, could only see about 1.5 feet down. Had one tense moment early when I hooked a scrappy 4 foot...pine tree off the bottom. About a half hour before we were going to leave, the sucker got snagged on the bottom again...I lifted it up and it felt heavy but I thought I had snagged another tree...till it gave a head shake. I yelled for Lisa to get up front since it was a fish..she said she didn't want to screw it up and wanted me to take it...just then the fish took off and started pulling out quite a bit of line...I dropped the tip and hammered it. Fish didn't move and the rod just completely buckled under the weight...man I love setting the hook on big fish!!! Fish stayed deep and bulldawged hard. I had to really reef it up off the bottom. Lisa did an awesome job on the net. Fish had something big in its stomach..the picture shows it a little but it was VERY WIDE bellied...was 46 X 20. We didn't get out rest of the weekend with all the snow and hunting... On a side note...Lisa and I had a very good Thanksgiving dinner at Stingrays in Woodruff on thurs!  Sure was pretty in the northwoods with all the snow...we got about 8 inches at the cabin.

| 3 Days in beautiful Canda, priceless! My worst results ever: One dink pike and a nice catfish, both on Legend Plows. Bitter cold, massive waves and torential downpours. The muskies were in their usual places but just not active!  | |||
