Posts: 2691 Location: Pewaukee, Wisconsin | Muskie fishing on Pewaukee was outstanding. My brother and I caaught 4 fish and raised 6 others. The first fish came at 5:30am only 15 minutes after we set up the sucker rods. I told Greg to take it and the first legal of 2005 was boated. This 38 1/2-incher went nuts after the hook-set and provided plenty of excitement as it got light out. The second fish(Gregs also) came on a rattle trap around 7am. I had to wait till 2:30 for my first fish. I stuck a 38-incher on a sucker after it came in on a glide bait. Less than a hour later I stuck a 37-incher on a twitch bait. Jason Smith and Fred scored three, all in the 36-inch range. Tuffy scored a couple fish. A couple nice fish were also caught on Saturday. A 48 1/2, 48, 45, 42 were the biggest ones that I know of but lots of the 36 to 38-inchers. Great day on the water. Today we moved 8 and caught 2 muskies, both were 37-inchers. Had a great time with all the boys who came down for the opener.

Posts: 3242 Location: Racine, Wi | Was a great weekend indeed. Out with the boys (a tad hung over, and on 2 hours of sleep) we faired pretty well. Nothing earth shattering but we got 3 on Sat, all in the 30-32" range, including my buddies first ever!!!! That was very cool. We raised 3 others on Sat. Today, got out on Silver, and right off the bat, raised a decent fish, it goes for the sucker, and gives me the Houdini act. It some how managed to get the sucker off the rig, before I could even screw something up.  Then I rased 2 others on jigs (was very disiplined today throwing them.) Ended up sticking a 38 1/2 on a sucker and missing one more on a jig. Pretty good way to start out the year, and great to get the new boat slimed right off the bat. | ||
