mike rousseau Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 well my dad and brother got out yesterday for some live bait musky... and they were on... first drift they boated 2 musky... one was a pig... no tape but im thinking a solid 48+ then i got home from my trip to guelph around 4 pm and unpacked as quick as i could... called my brother... packed my boat and we were off for some evening eyes... and what a night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! in 4-5 hours of fishing we boated 20 walleye from 2-9 pounds... the highlight of the night were 2 beasts at 27 and 29 inches... as well as an epic battle with what i THOUGHT was my soon to be pb walleye of my life... a damn sheephead over 10 pounds this thing was peeling line like crazy.... oh well...

mike rousseau Posted September 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 (edited) 38 and 42 well the bigger one weighed 30 pounds.... so 48 is a good estimate for length.... if it was 42 itwould have been shaped like a carp... but i wasnt there for the musky so i cant say for sure...

Those are amazing Fish! Way to be. Thanks for the set up also...I use a similar method for early season pike...but never had any luck with Musky!

Rod Caster Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 Oh man, those walleye you post make mine look like french fries. And a 10lbs sheephead??... More like a moosehead. I drove by Nipissing at. 430 am and I wondered if anyone was out musky fishing. I'd like to try that some day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
