Fisherpete Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 (edited) After a very very very long wait, it was finally slime time... opening weekend... and there on the Saturday, I sat in class. Whaaaat? Yes class for my apprenticeship program. Sigh. For the long-term good I suppose. After a few setbacks on Sunday morning, the boys already out and into a bunch of fish, I decided to head out solo for the afternoon. Didn't see a single fish until some nasty weather approached... and as the old saying goes, muskies will eat before a storm! This fish inhaled an entire magnum bulldawg - do you think she was hungry? Getting good solo pics is not the easiest but these turned out pretty darn good. 47" is actually my best opening day fish ever. Gallie - thanks for the tip - this might have just been the fish you guys saw! Cheers Pete Edited June 7, 2016 by Fisherpete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKRISONER Posted June 7, 2016 Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 damn pete, thats a clean one, way shinier than the old rotten hog i nabbed with ya in the fall. I swear to god pete, you put more muskies in the boat than some people put eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
