It would have been a gorgeous animal and it's a shame it had to be killed, but not much choice from the sounds of things.

And he reminded me of it every chance he got too Brian Just one more happy memory of my bro

My brother was a great bass & pickeral fisherman, but seldom fished for muskies unless he came out with me. We headed over to Chemong one day and I pulled into a favorite little bay. Ed went to the back of the boat and while I was dropping the troll motor he made his very 1st cast of the day and Bang, he nails a musky. Well he says, there's not much to catching a musky, what else do you wanna try ?? :lol:

Beauties Mike !!

Excellent Dan, looking forward to it

If that was a dog the owners would be ordered to keep that nasty thing on a leash Great video !!

So, how was the fishin ??

I'll be heading out for a musky on Sunday morning Dan and will be fishing alone so your more than welcome to join me if you want.

It's raining over here Cliff so it won't be long till it reaches you. Don't forget your rainsuit.

As long as it's not MY body John

OK Joey, I spose you can have 1 too, just don't tell Paul or he's gonna want in on the action too

Happy Anniversary to you & yours TG !! We're still practically newlyweds and have a long ways to go to catch you guys Connie, we'll be celebrating 46 years this October. Diane just recently took a 2 week cruise to Hawaii with a bunch of her girlfriends and left me home to pooch sit, so I told her that takes care of any further anniversary gifts for her for a long time....a VERY long time

Great looking set-up Stoty, but I'm assuming you'll be using a tether strap incase the suction mount pops loose ?? I like that telescopic pole at the rear, does that just sit in the hole for the rear seat ??

OK Rich, but only 1 each, I've made arrangements for all the others

Too bad your not gonna be there Chris, infact it's a shame what's happening with our G2G this year. Gonna be strange with only a few of us up there this year when we've had so many others in years past. Oh well, all the more muskies for me

We've got an extra room if you & Barb can make it up for a couple days thru the week John.

Great news Joey, be good to see you guys again as always. And Marvin says he's lookin forward to meeting Ralphie

It's amazing what some folks do for fun that most of us would never even consider

10 or 12 years ago my bro and I were staying near Gowganda during the hatch and we had the best bass fishing I think I've ever seen. There were lots of trees overhanging the waters edge and wherever the trees were touching the water is where most of the Mayflies were and they were literally covering the water and the branches. We started casting ChugBugs right into the thickest parts of them where the trees met the water and we were getting good sized fish on nearly every cast. If we moved away from the Mayflies the bite would stop. It was an incredible few days of fishing and I don't think I've ever seen anything like it before or since.

I've seen the pictures and the fish is huge. You don't need to waste your time explaining yourself as far as I'm concerned Bruce and if you did post the pic, or even if your bud posted it, we all know a few guys would just destroy the post anyways. And it usually happens from all the wannabe's too.

A good technique for those who are too lazy to cast & crank

Muskies become VERY active and aggressive just before the storm hits and it's one of the best times to fish for them. Just depends how close you like to be to the lightning.

Just saw it on Global about the severe storm warnings between Huntsville & Parry Sound.

Along with the 1st AID and CPR, also learn how to perform the Heimlich Maneuver. It's very simple to do, but it's also very effective, and chocking is something that can happen to anybody at anytime, whether at home, in a restaurant or deep in the bush.
