Randy Posted August 1, 2007 Report Share Posted August 1, 2007 My best friend Scott and I went to Canada on a fishing trip. The goal,.........Muskys!! All total between Scott and I, we caught and released 15 beautiful Muskys. We left on Thursday the 19th and got home Monday the 30th. I have many pics but don't want to put them all on here. Here's Scott with his 46 3/4" Musky Here's me with a 48" I had a really good day after catching this 50" 30 yards from were I caught the 48" earlier the same day. I finally caught a fish of a lifetime when I caught this 52 1/4"! We stopped on an Island almost everyday for a break and some lunch. The temperature was HOT so Scott soaked his feet for a while. This was the view from our lunch table. The last night at 9:10 pm Scott pullled in this Beautiful 48 1/2" musky. This is the whole crew as we are gettting ready to take the long drive home. Altogether we boated 21 muskys, with 7 over 46"! Scott's dad has been sick for quite some time now, He had been in the Hospital for months, Last night Scott went to visit his dad and told him all about the trip and told him he'll bring up some pics as soon as Randy get's them developed. Scott's dad passed away this morning. This sunset's for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tominator Posted August 1, 2007 Report Share Posted August 1, 2007 That is bittersweet. My dad and uncle always wanted to catch a musky, but never did. I sure would like to someday. So sorry to hear of your buddy's dad. My condolences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And please tell me you didn't throw those things back!!!! Here is what's left of the baits that we caught most of the fish on, I'm here to tell ya, you WILL feel like Popeye after a couple days of throwing these!! And yes, all fish swam away to be caught again next year when they're a little bit bigger!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Andrea Posted August 2, 2007 Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 Don't people eat muskies???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Posted August 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2007 Don't people eat muskies????I'm sure that people eat them, in fact I've heard that they are actually very good! I personally will never keep a musky as they are usually very difficult to catch and IMO are a trophy fish. They will never get bigger if I kill them.
