well i promised a report so here it is. We ended up boating 8 fish for the week with three coming early in the trip and the rest coming while we were out with Chad Cain. Chad put us on the fish and my wife got her first ever and a hawg at that. 49 incher. I ended up with two at 49.5 and a 45,40, 2@39 and a 35 incher. Fishing is still a little hit or miss right now overall, and the fish are in both the weed and rock areas.Bucktails and topwater baits were the ticket for us.

Dan,

Awesome job! You must be the one that Chad said caught a 49.5" about 20 minutes after his wife caught her first, a 49". Nothing like not letting her have the spotlight for long!!!

Yeah , she was pretty chapped about that , but she was still pretty darn happy.It was a great trip.

Thanks for the report. I've noticed that most of the biting Muskies I encounter hit in the first 5 minutes on the spot. Would you say that was true with the 8 you boated?

[Muskydanno]

I would say so. Most of the spots were very small and took less than ten minutes to cover really well.(especially with three baits in the water)Seemed you either got something right away or not at all.The last day of the trip we saw quite a few of the porpoising muskies, and a few of them were quite large just teasing us..wierdest thing. Wish there was a logical explanation for why they do that.

Good story. Sounds like a great time on the V.

Danno,

Did you do any fishing after dark at all?
