Turkeygirl Posted March 4, 2007 Report Share Posted March 4, 2007 Through the ice yesterday. Andy and I went fishing. Set-up all the tip-ups, got our jigging poles out and froze our butts off. Finally near the end of the day a tip-up went off that wasn't done by the wind, and I pulled in by hand my first Muskie, about 30.25" - just over the keep size, whew! Photo below. We are gonna eat him tonight. Haven't had one in quiet a few years. Their mouths are SCARY,lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Andrea Posted March 4, 2007 Report Share Posted March 4, 2007 Re: Caught a Muskie! CONGRATS RUTH!!!!!! Man that's a nice one. I know they get lots bigger, but that's gonna taste great!!!! They look just like our chain pickerel here. And the one you just caught would be a state record I do believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] After I froze my rear off all day in a blizzard in the middle of a lake,lol. Thanks everyone! Yeah I know they get bigger. We used to rent a house on the lake, when my sister and I were really young and Andy would catch some pretty big ones from there. I think two years ago I caught a really nice walleye from the same lake, I think I put a photo on here of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OUTSIDER Posted March 8, 2007 Report Share Posted March 8, 2007 Re: Caught a Muskie! Good fish, even though I strongly support catch and release of muskie. I know he tasted wonderful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
