More topwater musky

[pokerdemon4]

Got out for a day with fellow member Sinker. He is a great guide. Here is a 40 incher that nailed a weagle. We fished hard and moved a couple more fish. The bite can only get better. Good luck out there.

Great day bud! That topwater hit was spectacular!! I get just as excited when someone else gets one, as I do when I get one myself!! Good times!!

 

BTW, that fish was over 40".....more like 43" or so. Good, solid, heavy fish.

Nice going!

 

Congrats, probably the most exciting fishing experience. Not easy to get solid hookset on those musky using musky topwaters.

Beauty fish, top water is the best. They miss walk the dog style baits so often though!

Congrats

Nothing beats a top water musky in my books. Nice catch

This was my first topwater musky. I had almost given up on topwaters for these fish. I have read that you will see more fish on a walk the dog topwater but you hooking percentage is the lowest with this style of bait. I fish topwaters for bass quite often. The key is setting the hook when you feel the fish. When I first started I would always pull the lure away and miss the majority of the strikes. I can't wait to go again. Good luck to all.

Trying top water Muskie fishing is definitely now on my to-do list this summer! Great fish - congrats

Definitely takes alot of patience, always have a throwback lure like a hell hound, manta or a soft bait my jackpot locates a lot of fish for me but hooks up with very few
