NW Angle

[David Swenson]

Thanks Rick for giving us crazy muskie nuts our own place to talk. Along with great information that can be shared I am sure we will never have any bull or stretching of the truth in this forum .

Anyway, I am heading up to the NW Angle on Tuesday, anyone have a muskie report for that area. Any info would be welcome.

Thanks.

Well,
we couldn't very well have you share your secret poodle bait tips in a regular forum, now could we!

This is where all the bull can be discarded and the real secrets you muskie maniacs share can come out, eh?

Dave, Give us a report on the NW Angel when you get back. I have fished for muskies up there for 30 years and have fished with some the muskie greats up there, e.g., Ken Sandy, Bill Sandy. I know that when the water starts to cool up there, trolling is very successful. Bill Sandy guided a friend of mine to a 58 incher in Oct. two years ago! Speaking of the big V., someone staying in my rental cabin caught a 52 1/2 incher last week. Ski Nut

Ski Nut,

A friend and myself were fortunate to spend one day of fishing with Doug Johnson while up at the NW Angle. In the world of muskie fishing, I have a lot to learn. My friend boated a 44" and Doug boated a 42". I just had the honor of being there.

We fished two more days and I boated a 46.5" fish on a figure 8. No other fish caught, did manage to see some nice fish though. All we did was cast. To warm for trolling yet. The green slime was also present and spent a lot of time looking for clean water.

Good luck fishing everyone!

Wow, fishing with Doug Johnson must of
been a treat. He has got to be the best
when it comes to fishing on a shield lake.
I hope you picked his brain while you were fishing...I'll listen if you want to talk about it.
