No I didn't fish the good pond although I should have. I went to Red and fished with pops and managed to blow up my main. Long weekend cruising around on Red with my kicker. Anything been moving? Soon as my motor is rebuilt and jackplate is replaced I will be there...where it took three guys to land one fish (see photo )

[bucktail=5-0]

That area is holding fish. The growth isn't like last year but still really good. I have only been there twice this year for a very short period of time. Jer has had a couple of good eventfull hours in there. I have been spending time elsewhere. Remember where that super tanker came up and tried to eat your bait boatside. That hasn't been fantastic but scatching out a few in there. You will have to give me a call when you are coming up. If I can't go I can point you in the right direction.

Jon P;

I hear you are quite the muskie hunter. Lots of folks saying you got a good reputation for putting quality fish in the boat.

Do you guide still?

[Random guy]

I do OK The trouble lately has been keeping the boat in the water. Yes I still do guide from time to time, although my work as a lender has been keeping me busy.

[Big G]

I see that, in your advertising, that you do mortgages. Homes, cabins, land????

Jon;

I would like to get a guide for French Lake. I grew up there as a kid and it has a good population of muskies. Would you be interested in guiding me down there? Teach me what I should be doing to catch them?

I'm kinda a newbie in this game.

[Random guy]

Yes I work as a lending specialist in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and North Dakota. I cover many types of lending; home purchase, refinancing, debt consolidation, lines of credit, and investment properties the list goes on and on. I can even pay of that higher interest loan on the boat or help put junior through college! It’s pretty rewarding work.

As far as guiding I’m not taking on any new clients, I stay pretty busy with work and since I just recently moved to the cities I am not as knowledgeable with the lakes south of Mille Lacs. If you’re looking for someone to guide you check out the guide locator option in the banner at the top of the page. These are all good guides and are very knowledgeable about there local waters.

Jon-

New to muskies and was wondering if you got any advice when fishing Forest Lake. I have never fished it before and was wondering if you could help me out a little.

Would recommend a guy named Jason Hammernick. Got the chance to fish with him about a month ago and we put 2 fish in the boat and had 6 follows in about 3 hrs. He guides on Forest lake and Mille lacs. I fished with him on a local lake and it was fun. great guide!

[Random guy]

Forest Lake, I am new to metro waters so I am probaly not the best guy, heck I'm probaly in need of much advice myself down here. I am really not up to speed on that water, I think I have been on it four times all year. Definetly pressured from recreation so a night or weekday approach is in order I believe. So I'm going to forward your question on to some of these "Metro Masters" and maybe we can both get some info
