I'm on my way back from Sioux lookout but was dying to put at least this report up. I've got some other pics to load and I'll do that when I get home.
This past Monday, I had the pleasure of accompanying the owner of the lodge I stayed at and one of the guides for some musky fishing on Lac Seul. We headed out around 2:30.
We tried a few spots and then came to another. I was throwing a topwater and saw this giant following it in. I said "I've got a follow" and the guide said "speed it up". I did and she followed it right to the boat. As soon as I started my figure 8 ......BANG ...SHE NAILED IT. My rod bent in half almost instantly and Greg (our guide) had the fish in the net. I let out a huge YAAAAAA and I had my biggest fish of my life.
Here she is....52 inches and a 24 inch girth !!!!!!
Back you go Big Girl...thanks for one of the greatest moments of my fishing life.
We fished for a while after that and saw a total of 6 muskies that day. I lost another one but I did take some comfort in that she wasn't as big as the girl I landed.
I went out with another guy from the lodge last night and we saw another 7 fish. I can't describe how good the fishing is here. I've certainly enjoyed my time here.
