Handlebarz Posted June 2, 2012 Report Posted June 2, 2012 (edited) Well my daughter and I missed the opener today so I was sitting here building some baits and got the idea to run a contest for 4 different Handlebarz lures I just built these today just for this contest. Its open to all OFC members who are looking for musky you dont need to catch a musky or the biggest one just get out and have fun then share it here. Simple rules post a photo of either your in season musky from this year caught on or after June 2nd or June 16th You don't have to be out on opener day just caught in season 2012. or post a photo of your day on the water looking for musky I just want to see what everyone was doing for opener.It could be someone casting a kid holing a huge musky lure a rod in a rod holder trolling just what ever your opener day was. The closing date will Be June 19th this gives the musky nuts in the north a chance to enter also. I will put down all the names of the members who respond here with there days adventure and have my daughter pull a name that lucky musky nut will get all 4 baits my banner will stay here with me. There will be one of each size bait I make double 10 copper walleye and 8 Armageddon inline flashabou and a large Egg head electric black with musky red/black blade that has a single size 10 magnum blade as well as the new out for this year my small egg head Yellow Jacket which has a size 8 Colorado its built with the same strength as all my baits but perfect for casting with you pike gear. Good luck I'm looking forward to the reports. Edited June 2, 2012 by Mike P.
SlowPoke Posted June 2, 2012 Report Posted June 2, 2012 Nice Mike!!! I hope we see some great opener shots
GBW Posted June 2, 2012 Report Posted June 2, 2012 very cool! too bad I passed up on the opener today for the Brooklin fair with the Mrs and kids... so does that count as she's got a mean bite?
backbay Posted June 2, 2012 Report Posted June 2, 2012 Three Cheers for Mike!:clapping: Thanks, Hope I can get north in time for the contest! Chris
SlowPoke Posted June 2, 2012 Report Posted June 2, 2012 Here's my opener, 42.5" Looks like you're the front runner! Nice fish.
mercman Posted June 2, 2012 Report Posted June 2, 2012 Spent yesterday an most of today with Musky Mike. Arrived at his place yesterday and we decided to hit the Fran for some eyes. Up at 6am and it was cold and windy and even though we saw only one musky on our day on the Rideau(Mike got into a nice 45 incher that rolled in the weed bed and shook the hook ) Did manage fish though I got this 8 lb baby, and Mike and i did well on the walleye.
Handlebarz Posted June 4, 2012 Author Report Posted June 4, 2012 Nice start MW I must say I am shocked that there are not a lot more reports in yet not for here but in general. Hope to see everyone getting started in the next few weeks.
Dontcryformejanhrdina Posted June 4, 2012 Report Posted June 4, 2012 (edited) No musky, but a new PB pike, 30.5". Edited June 4, 2012 by Dontcryformejanhrdina
SlowPoke Posted June 4, 2012 Report Posted June 4, 2012 No musky, but a new PB pike, 30.5". I'd be happy with that!
Dontcryformejanhrdina Posted June 4, 2012 Report Posted June 4, 2012 I'd be happy with that! Thanks, I was just glad to catch something. Also, I must be a complete moron because no matter what I try, I can't get pictures to show up on the page.
Nipfisher Posted June 4, 2012 Report Posted June 4, 2012 Thanks, I was just glad to catch something. Also, I must be a complete moron because no matter what I try, I can't get pictures to show up on the page. Just copy the image code and paste it right into the text of your report.
Dontcryformejanhrdina Posted June 4, 2012 Report Posted June 4, 2012 Just copy the image code and paste it right into the text of your report. Thanks! I must have been using the wrong link codes before.
Gregoire Posted June 4, 2012 Report Posted June 4, 2012 I went out and discovered a new way to catch trophy walleye. My secret lure is a topraider.
Slop Posted June 4, 2012 Report Posted June 4, 2012 Thanks for the gesture Mike, the pressure will be felt with every cast. It's 'crunch time'
Joeytier Posted June 4, 2012 Report Posted June 4, 2012 Still waiting to receive pictures of my 50" er from a friend caught this opener.
Handlebarz Posted June 4, 2012 Author Report Posted June 4, 2012 Thanks for the gesture Mike, the pressure will be felt with every cast. It's 'crunch time' Habs fans can't enter Congrats on a 50 for opener lots of time to enter. Brian you can not enter another persons pike for your entry at least photoshop it lol Topraider walleye count just nice to here everyone getting out

MuskieWannabe Posted June 8, 2012 Report Posted June 8, 2012 A small lunch hour musky, caught from shore today.
Djeep Posted June 9, 2012 Report Posted June 9, 2012 I got two muskies on opening weekend and unfortunately this was the bigger of the pair. It was my first muskie on the fly rod with a mess of a fly i tied from bucktail in the bench vise. need those baits to get a real muskie out on LSC though!
Handlebarz Posted June 10, 2012 Author Report Posted June 10, 2012 Nice to see others getting out. Don't forget there is still time to post here I will be waiting for the northern opener before drawing a name
scugpg Posted June 11, 2012 Report Posted June 11, 2012 Caught this guy over the weekend on a double blade crawler harness in the kawarthas.
