Congrats to the winners...Wish I could have been there

Hey guys, just wanted to say thank you to those who helped me out on this lake down here and wish all of you success in your future musky endeavors. Unfortunately, I will be moving back to Madison...

Tough day. Fished the afternoon and evening and only ended up seeing two fish. Saw both on Hatchet shads. Don't know if I lost touch with the fish or if it was just an off day. Back again next...

Fished some new areas yesterday without seeing a fish. Ended up picking one 30ish fish at the very end of the day. Hit while twitching a Super Shad Rap. Tough day otherwise. The one fish I did...

Out yesterday afternoon with a guy who hasn't musky fished before. Hit my usual spots from 2-dark and saw 7 fish between the two of us. He managed a 29-30 inch fish on one of my black and green...

Out from 10ish til 4 today. Didn't see anything by one and headed back to the car to get out of the storm. Went back out about 2:15 and immediately put a 35" ski in the boat on a spanky bait double...

Sorry bout your bad experience, I haven't dealt with APC but Harrisons has worked out for me so far. I'm not sure but I suspect the coil pack would have made your bill over 100 dollars. May have to...

Thanks for the clarification Chad

Tough day today. Fished from 8-4. Saw only one fish(around 35") at about 2:30 on a musky train crank. Broke my backup musky stick trying to remove a bucktail I buried into a stump. Saved a 20...

Heard there was one coming up but I thought it was later in Oct???

Out yesterday from 2-dark. Everytime I'm on this lake I'm more and more impressed. boated two fish in the first half an hour and saw three more before 4oclock. Boated one more on a figure 8 at...

Not good...This isn't an issue up in WI as far as I know. Is it something that's more prevalent in the southern portions of whitetail country? I hope this doesn't become to prevalent down here and...

Sorry for the late report...didn't get o ut until 1 and fished til 6. Saw one fish early on a shallow invader and then nothing until 500. boated a 38 at 5 and a 41.5 at 515. Both on figure8...

Thanks for the report. From everyone I've talked to it seems like it might be a good fall.

+1 The cabelas tourney trail 8ft hvy was my first musky rod and I absolutely loved it. I just looked em up, on sale for 59.99. A really decent rod for the money. Even if you upgrade this rod...

G. Loomis and St Croix may be a little steep for a beginners rods but will definitely make you enjoy throwing the big lures more. As far as a reel, you really can't beat a 6500 abu garcia c3 without...

From everything I've heard if you are targeting smallmouth and walleye you are kind of searching for a needle in a haystack. I will mostly be musky fishing out there this fall but hit me up if you...

Out both yesterday and today. Picked up a sub-30 fish on a shallow invader and lost a good one on a tallywacker at dark yesterday. Nothin going today for me. Out again next week

I have a pretty respectable collection of musky lures, however, they're all from my time in WI and MN. A lot of perch, firetiger, and cisco type baits and colors. Just curious how much different...

Thanks, headed for my first IL musky trip Friday...Pumped UP

Out on Cedar this morning. Surface temp was 69-70 at 6 am and 75 at noon, not sure how this compares to Kinkaid but we gotta be close with 38 degrees for tonite...windy, windy, windy. Biggest fish...

Moved to Carbondale from Northern MO in July and I've been painfully biding my time to get on Kinkaid for muskies. The water temps have been ridiculous and I'm hoping that they should be more fish...
