chris.brock Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 Real nice fish Pete. Me and a buddy did 8 hours for skis on Sunday and the lake seemed "void of life" as we said a few times that day, skunked. What time did you get it?

Fisherpete Posted October 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 (edited) Thanks everyone. Brian - it was a pleasure as always fishing with you. Overall it was a slow day out there, had one rip trolling that came unpinned before even pulling the rod out of the holder, and caught this fish casting a big plastic. No other action or follows. It was indeed a bit rough out there, the wind switched directions a few times during the day too. The lake looked 'different' this weekend, almost murky and right around 50F in most areas of the lake. Not sure if the wind stirred it up or if turnover is happening? Kerry - was nice to meet you also and yeah, will have to give that area a try where the shore fishing guys had that big one on! Still lots of time to get out there this season... Tupelo - PM sent. Art - I thought you only fished for species with whiskers not fangs Chris - the trolling rip came around 8:30am and this fish was caught around 3pm. Steve - thanks - pretty happy with the boat and how I rigged it up. Works well for two guys fishing skis.

Fisherpete Posted October 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 Nice fish...how did it taste Delicious, even better than all the 20-30 inchers I eat all summer. The colder water really brings out the taste of mercury in the belly fat, which I prefer to cut into thin strips and eat raw while filleting the fish. I did this beauty up is a red wine and motor oil sauce, garnished with zebra mussel paste and cabbage weed salad. My five year old ate at least five pounds of it. Send me a PM if you would like my full recipe list of muskie dishes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you fillet them like Toronto Pike where you gotta wipe em down with varsol first I would actually like to fish for them someday but I will have to retire first to have the time PS You thought about that post a long time didn't you...love it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
