Absolutley fits the bill Bunk.
And he holds ML in the highest regards.
And a few other honorable mentions as well....(he may not get along with them all but acknowledges their ability)
Personally ....all the ego crap and slinging aside I regard TM as .........up there.
A great family man, good businessman, honest person and good friend.

Although I have never had the pleasure of meeting Mike Laz. I have however polled every high profile muskie guide and highly experienced angler I could.
The question was ....Who is the best Muskie guide...period
And every single one answered Mike L.
I have searched high and low for info on him ...but it seems he just likes to quietly go about catching fish for clients the likes of which is shown above.
What a ridiculous statement!!
It's attitudes like this , and failure to recognize fact here on the Marc Thorp fan club that lead me to stop posting here....
All hail MT
Thats looks like a fudelli spinnerbait....nice spinnerbait.
Dry it out add more head cement and any muskie guy would like to add that to his collection.
Want my mailing address???

This is from the MNR consumption guide.
"Muskellunge - Consumption tables in this Guide do not normally provide advisories for muskellunge. To maintain healthy muskellunge populations, the Sport Fish Contaminant Monitoring Program encourages catch and release of this species as it generally cannot sustain heavy fishing pressure. If you do wish to keep a legal-sized muskellunge for consumption, it will likely have elevated mercury levels, and should not be consumed by women of childbearing age and children under 15. Trophy sized muskellunge usually have very high mercury levels and should not be consumed by anyone.(emphasis added)"
Thanks..
For many reasons that was a sweet catch and watching the fight was exceptional,,,,,strong brute of a fish.
I was happier to see him get it than I would have been had I caught it.
And fattie season is still to come...can't wait.
Certainly a good reason to celebrate
Congrats Montreal...many more for you.
We'll probably see you all at your outing again this year..
Cheers

Actually it's a fishing forum ...to post reports...share info...I noticed you have yet to make a fishing report CG33 in your 100 posts or 10 per day!!!!
More like an argument board eh???
Awesome Lew.
Another great outing...I was hoping to get back up to the west arm again this year but it doesn't look good.
I'll have to settle for those great pics.
Matt
Thats exactly what my response was intending to imply, that every person should know the limits/size restrictions/and every other legality associated with angling......otherwise we start making exceptions and who puts the limits on exceptions???
1/4" over or 2" over ,whats the difference
And contrary to what cg33 thinks...anyone who thinks they can ignore the size limits should take a look at themselves....
Eveyone on this site preaches abiding by the rules and laws of angling until something like this comes up....
is this an exception???
is it ok in this circumstance???
Should we turn a blind eye??
I'm sorry ...I'm 100% "0" tolerence for poaching
serves em right ...shoulda took all the gear and banned em for life.
I make sure everyone I fish with is legal...your bud knew he was breaking the law, when you buy your licence it's explained what your limits are...he wanted to save a buck...he got off easy.
