Thank you kindly Brian!thumbsup_anim.gif

I took slowpokes offer and after a few pms, it was on!I met up with Frank, then off to Brians place!After a little intro and chat we were off to LSC!

We arrived at LSC just after sun up!What a view!

We began trolling for about an hour or so, seen a few skis rise in the meantime!

Finally we had one on,then lost after a few seconds!We continued on and after a while finally another one on!thumbsup_anim.gif This one is going to be landed!

And she sure was landed! A 39 incher!biggrin.gif

The funniest moments of the day was the pontoon duderofl2.gifrofl2.gif and the wheel!tease.gif But thats for another day!

To elaborate on Vince's comment about pontoon dude---

 

He actually had the first fish landed for the day. Picture a guy, by himself, trolling in a pontoon boat for musky. He hooks one, and, proceeds to play it for at least ten (probably closer to fifteen) minutes...all the while, circling the river with his engine running!!! Finally, Slowpoke had to speak up and say, "why don't you turn your engine off?" Pontoon man's response..."I know what I am doing!" He then shot that statement right out of the water by saying "I use light line, that's why I catch them!" DOH!!!!!!!!!!!! First of all who uses light line for musky...second of all...HAVE YOU LOOKED AT THE COLOUR OF THE WATER...was my thought! We were using baits bigger than a small walleye, and, you could only see them for about a foot under the surface!!!

Hopefully his "fifty incher" survived to fight another day!

Someone to direct traffic while he drags 'ole nessie around the river before netting it? LOL

I'll be sure to have my 8 lb main line and 4 lb fluoro leaders ready to go for next time. Those creatures are so fussy.

Good times, we'll do it again.

I was there - pontoon man is there often and he is quite the character. Often runs 2 lines per person in areas where only one is allowed.

I saw someone doing repeated circles around a fish too - it was hilarious. My buddy yelled "doesn't your boat have that optional 'neutral feature' on it??? He just looked at us. We howled!

Great post Vinny!

 

Enjoyed reading it.

 

Pontoon Guy/Dude.......legend.....if you had video it would definitely go viral!

 

Yupper!!!!

 

Pontoon Man, Pontoon Man...he'll catch muskies when nobody can

His line is light, his fights are long

His musky tactics are all wrong. :D
