#1 Musky bait of all time.........Crawler Harness!

Took 2 in 30 minutes today going 1.5 mph while dragging harnesses for walleyes. First one was about 40", no big deal, no pic. Second one was a whole different animal. Not a 50" fish, but I am guessing 46"-47". No tape measure big enough. No net big enough. Hand landed both fish. No cuts on me or fish. Both fish very healthy. The big one was incredibly thick.

Here's the bigger fish of the two.

nice catch gotta love the harness

 

[little guy]

Hooked both of them the same way - back hook, right in the corner of the jaw.

I tie my harnesses with 20# test.

[Rainman]

[RICKJAMES]

[heimskr]

[tracker73]

[Makoman]

Beautiful clean fish, no marks,no split fins----great job!

 

[Musky Junky]

Nice looking musky Little Guy!!! Did you catch them around 7:00AM?

 

[little guy]

No I would say about 10:00-11:00 am or so. They were within a hundred yards of each other.

Oh man great fish. I need a few motrin tonight, casting bucktails all day in the bay and had one follow,arms gonna fall off. Seeing your pic of that fish makes me want to get out and do it all over tomorrow------I think

 

[little guy]

:lol:lol !!! That's musky fishing. Cast for days and then go walleye fish and grumble because now you have a 25# fish on and it's gonna be a while before you get him in. Oh and then the buddy says, uh - that things not gonna fit in our net.... One nice thing about grabbing them though, they don't get chewed up in the net. If you have the stones to do it and the hooks are in a safe place, it's easy on the fish.

Awesome! Two of us beat the crap out of the water for 10hrs just to get 2 followers and a big large mouth! How deep were you?

I guess I need to start fishing for walleye to catch muskie, nice job on the harness. We were out today and got one 30inch pike and one 33 inch ski in 5 hours of muskie trolling on US side.

 

[6667supersport]

BOY, that makes 2 guys in a week that both catch 2 40'+ fish trolling crawler harnesses in 17-18' of water. Looks like I should pickup a couple dozen crawlers next time out and hit the deep water...................My luck I would catch the wallys

!!!!!!!!!! U better take that new muskie rod next time U go walleye fishing.................

 

[BASSTEK]

Nice job my Friend. I guess you don't need those Musky baits I picked up for You.
