Seaweed Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 Well I hit the river today to try to land some opening day bass. Got this nice Pike early in the day on a frog. Worked all day trying to find a bass. None. On my last spot I hit the jackpot. Surprise! Supertanker Alert! My all time big fish all 54 inches of her. Amazing fight... I had to beach the boat to release her..... she still swims. What a surprise on opening day for bass. Go figure. I'm all smiles for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seaweed Posted June 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 I'm still vibrating. Freaking hard to believe still. I don't know how Pete Mania does those shots holding big muskie I couldn't control this fish enough to hold her up out of the water and as you can tell I'm no slouch and a big ole boy.

Zamboni Posted June 25, 2007 Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 WOW, congrats on a great catch. I launch at Grenville (across from Hawksbury) and fish the Ottawa once or twice a year-we have a cottage in Laurentians. Never seen Muskie over 48"'s in that section of Ottawa-hear they exist. Without giving too much info out which general area were you in? Just got my hands on Ottawa River charts this weekend, might pull boat to a business meeting in Orleans coming up.

Seaweed Posted June 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2007 The fish was caught and released around Petrie Island. There are a few beach goers that might not be swimming there anymore now that they have seen that fish. I would gladly hook up with anyone who would like to fish the area if you are around just let me know. It would be a great place for a get-together too.
