Dontcryformejanhrdina Posted June 12, 2012 Author Report Posted June 12, 2012 I ended up switching to a high numbers/low size lake on Sunday, and went from casting mainly bucktails to mostly sledges. Caught my first 2 of the season (small at 31 and 32", the smaller of the 2 trolling rod in hand) then gave the hot lure to my brother who caught his first when it was hot, sunny and no wind, a 34"er. Went back for 4 hours Monday night and caught 4 more (with 2 hits that got off), still small at 31, 32, 32.5 and 34". Just got back from a lake I normally fish, was out about 4 hours and caught 1 small pike, a fat 29" pike and a 26" tiger musky. Also raised at least 3 muskies (I think I raised the same one twice), one was about a 45"er that launched itself entirely out of the water a second after my sledge hit the water, moments before the thunder started. I now have a new favourite lure! I'm relieved to finally get into some fish and get confidence in using a new lure, even if I'm not seeing the size I want yet.

Dontcryformejanhrdina Posted June 14, 2012 Author Report Posted June 14, 2012 I wish I would have used them more last year. It's such an easy lure to use too compared to reeling in double 10's all day.
