Went up to my uncles cabin this last weekend staying friday night-monday afternoon.

Saturday morning i caught a 45inch within the first 30mins of fishing. Then that night i caught a 43inch. Then i felt bad for my dad so i let him use the lure and he got a 40inch.

Sunday didnt produce anything as my dad was still using the only lure that caught fish and he managed to cast it off frown.gif

monday morning i was using a similar lure and stopped reeling for a sec to change direction on the stern mount trolling motor, and i feel something heavy on my line, no hit, just heavy. Wham! i set the hook and i have the biggest by far of the week. He jumped twice and then we land him. I look at him and he is the biggest i have ever caught. I quick grab my pliers and unhook him, and as soon as i get the hook out, SPLASH! She swishes her tail and the next thing i know there is a hole in my net and no fish.

I had a Berkely/frabil 30inch hoop qith deep bag. Needless to say i bought a new bag for the net that had smaller holes so they cant bite through again... We guessed her at 48,49inch and fat. Fastest release so far... probably no more then 15secs and she didnt even leave the water... but no picture, i count her as caught, i touched her...

Anyway still was a great trip.

Big bummer about the net, that sucks, on the plus side it was truly a clean release, can't do much better then that. Sounds like you had a great weekend, definitely one to remeber and the best part is you got to spend it with your old man, that is something you'll remeber for the rest of your life, pictures or not.

I had my best DAY ever on Saturday. My wife and I were fishing a local area lake in Bemidji. We landed 3 fish, 50.5, 49 and 48 inches. Incredible! My wife landed the 50.5 inch and I boated the 49 and 48 inch muskies. It's going to be hard to beat that day...
