First Muskies of the Season!

1072 Views 21 Replies 9 Participants Last post by  gimmeteeth
One 41" the other 42". All hits on bucktails. 10-14 fow, out from spillway, 4 mph
Released both of them ok but it was tough - have high gunnels.
Lost the first one about 20' away from the boat - it never surfaced,
think I lost him while slowing the trolling motor down.

Just got a camera have pictures can't figure out how to put them in this post.
(got the pictures into the computer but can't get further than that)

Good job on the skis. It was a little rough out there today. Just got my first muskies on my boat today as well.

That's about what I figured as I watched the sun come out, but I was just getting out of work and couldn't hit the water until after 5, so I stayed home and took a nap and waxed the boat. Me and the chick will be out tomorrow.

As far as pics, go to this part of your reply screen-

Rectangle Computer Screenshot Font Parallel


Hit "Browse" and that should bring up your computer window, where you can go through your documents, pictures, files, etc. You'll see all of your pics or however you file them. Click on the pic you want, and it'll show up in the box. Then click the green "UPLOAD" button, and it'll be in there. If you download a bunch they'll sit horizontally, but that's another lesson, so I'll just stack them vertically fo you if you download a bunch.

You can get them warmed up for me and I'll come through behind you in my heavy sled and seal the deal.


But if you guys do see me out there, really drifting through isn't a problem. You're in a light boat, I'm in a heavy boat- we're going to drift at different speeds, so c'mon through. And like last time, I had my socks off my stern and you had your's off your beam, so we were drifting at different angles too, it'd have just been a criss-cross and not an issue. Just make sure 'Bait has his hat on so I'll know it's you guys! lol

We'll be out tomorrow afternoon/evening. I've got to be somewhere in the AM.
