Another fantastic report, very thorough, and a good trolling season with some awesome muskies caught. I have been slipping in terms of log keeping. Reading your report makes me think of occasions when fish have bumped the lure and after a pump, hook up; the need to keep track of the big pike I catch (for some, they would be a fish of a lifetime; I think that I should keep track of hook ups and misses, and chuckle when you say that you know the misses can’t be pike. I have more to say but am drained from cheering on the Bombers.

I gotta get me one of those hat cameras.

Thanks for a great report. I hope we can make it out together next fall.
