crusty Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 (edited) Since I couldn't break 15lbs this summer, anyone got pictures of what I'm trying to catch So what nobody on this board caught a big muskie last year?

Bob Devine Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Although musky fishing was tougher in 2006 we did manage to catch some good ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pigeontroller Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Since you asked Crusty, It was a casting fish. Hit a Topraider about 40 feet from the boat. First fish on a surface bait. Definately one of my best fishing experiences to date! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linweir Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Last year I did good on number but not on size. The biggest one is 21 pound chunky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pigeontroller Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Hey Jigger, thats a nice one! Get comfortable with the gil-plate and belly hold and you will get a nicer pic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctrt Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Can only guess on the weight of this one, but she was a big girl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jigger Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Thanks pigeontroller. I don't have much luck with the gill hold and all the larger fish that I got didn't seem to have a problem being held by the tail. I just make sure the head is over the water incase they freak out. You're right, though. The gill hold makes for much better shots. Thanks again. BTW, Doctrt, thats a BEAUT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pigeontroller Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Jigger, it just takes alittle practice, I started with the tail hold too... One of the great things about a BIG pen net is there's no hurry...Lots of time to get acquainted, just becareful of the Gills and TEETH! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LebowSKI Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 I landed 3 last season, which was my first season targetting them specifically. A 40", 34", and the monster 50" in my avatar. I can now hardly think of targetting another species. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
