Fish4Eyes Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Enjoy your stay guys. I just returned from there last night after a 7 night stay. Pike and pickerel fishing was pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seaweed Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Roy I am arriving on Saturday August 4 and leaving on Thursday August 9. I am up there on the week with the holiday Monday every year for the past 7 years anyway. It only took me three years to find the fish. Tough water sometimes... BTW we will be under a fairly good full moon... hang on to the rods everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aplumma Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 O.K. it is official Joe and I will be up there 5th to the 10th of Aug. Mr Lew I do believe if you have time you owe me a muskie. I seem to have drawn a blank the last time you were generous enough to take me out. Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aplumma Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 I forgot... what size gaff should I bring to land the muskies Lew? Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lew Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 I forgot... what size gaff should I bring to land the muskies Lew? Art It's easier to just grab them by the eye sockets Art, keeps em from squirming too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lew Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 I thought it was the warm water that made the teeth fall out ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aplumma Posted July 13, 2012 Report Share Posted July 13, 2012 I guess we can do it either way after all we are just going to grind them up and make muskie burgers anyway. Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Clemens Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 Really don't understand all this wishful thinking about catching musky. I already caught them. Guess you'll have to settle for pike stew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tybo Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 There goes my nice quiet week at the lake. Oh yeah. It`s never too quiet for long when I`m around. :blahblah1: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_hooked Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 Just to get you guys excited...... I expect we'll see a couple nice muskies caught while you are here..... One guy and his wife this past week raised 3 big fish (46-48 inches maybe?) and landed two smaller fish.. a 39- and a 44-incher. They were very happy. Bass and walleye fishing is good... Pike is a bit slow for some reason.. although I got asked to clean two nice fish..(25-28 inches) few days back... fried them up real fast and tasty .. for a nice couple from Georgia...

motv8tr Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 Well according to Lew, those are not worthy Muskie When I got mine a few years ago and it was estimated to be 44" his only comment was "I don't play with fish that small " I'll be happy to play with them anytime though....I'm not that picky Maureen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pike were slim pickings for me Now don't you go catching it ... just PM me the coordinates where she is, since I won't be back up there until June of next year. I'll take care of business then. Oh yeah - Best of luck on any other species you choose to fish for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seaweed Posted August 22, 2012 Report Share Posted August 22, 2012 Hi everyone My appologies for not coming over to say hi while up at the West Arm this year. I had a bunch of calamity events that took a lot of my time while up there this year and dodging the foul weather... well between those things there was little time for much socializing. I totalled my trailer trying to launch the Nitro at the Sucker Creek launch when I backed it off the concrete pad and decided that my truck would pull it out real well if I slapped it in four wheel low and hammered the gas... wrong... bent the center rib and knoced off all the bunks what a bonehead move ... thanks to a few of the lads we managed to get my trailer fixed and the welding shop in Vernor is amazing and I would recommend them to anyone... thirty bucks to weld up some new welds that busted loose on the center rib. I did see lots of boats on the water when I did get out a few times but... well I was fishing... and not too successfully until Thursday when you could not keep the pike off the hook... amazing that the bite could turn on like that. I hope you all had a good week and someday I will make it over to say hello and get to put some faces to a lot of folk on this discussion board. Tight lines and enjoy the rest of the summer.
