Post Your June 2010 Trip Reports Here

Well the muskie fishing was so-so for me over the weekend. Saturday was really tough. Fished all day and only saw one. Sunday with the weather change things started to pick up. Saw 5 and landed one 42.5" (thanks for the help Justin). Sunday morning I only fished for a few hours and saw 4, landed one and hooked and lost another. Rock/sand/reed areas and wind blown points seemed to be the best. Back up over the 4th.

My three buddies and I arrived at Mylies on the 28th of June to find a heavy NW wind and rain on the horizon. After Justin plopped us in, we headed out on the lake and nabbed 2 quick upper 30" fish on a bladed bait and a phat daddy walk the dog topwater. We saw several more and lost a couple bigger fish. The next few days, we landed a total of 20 and hooked and lost another 22. We had quite a bit of trouble keeping them pinned, even on the sturdiest set. We located 3 or 4 in the 50 inch range on weeds and rocks. It varied greatly upon the wind direction. The searing sun and the south winds kicked up some late summer algae in Big and Little Traverse as well as the sunset channel. We searched for clearer water and non-mossed weed beds and we seemed to locate the fish. We caught several on bucktails, spinnerbaits, and a few on top waters and musky buster creepers.

The late summer algae and moss are growing leaps and bounds already - if you like to pound the good cabbage weedbeds up there, you better get your A** moving, because the bays are junking up quick.

Going back on the 11th of July. Hope we can find some tankers.
