Well.... I caught my first muskie ever this weekend at Lake Webster. It went 41". I caught it Saturday right at dark on a top water bait in the backwaters in about 3-4 foot of water. To start the day off... we fought crazy weather conditions.... raining, windy, and some wintry mix. Fishing was very slow. We didn't see any fish, but a buddy had a good hit and lost a $30 crank bait. Finally the wind laid down, and then this fish smoked the bait about 10 feet from the boat. I can't wait to go back.

Another buddy that went for the first time caught a 42" fish on Sunday AM. My buddy who has been many times got skunked.

A beautiful Saturday evening...









The catch....



And the release...



An awesome Sunday morning sunrise...

Awesome...did the adrenaline get going? Congrats and some very cool looking pics. We caught 1 and lost 3 on suckers Saturday on Tippy. Wish we would have boated the first one...mid to upper 40" fish that stripped off about 30 feet of line.

Suckers have taken a back seat in my boat...I didn't even fish them this past weekend. Randy Bush (the guy that guides for me) and I boated 18 muskies casting crankbaits. Biggest fish was 46".
