Sunday's gonna be my first day. I'll try small bucktails, some slow twitches, and a few small jerks. Might even throw a rattletrap for a while just to see if I can Rattle my Way to Spring Success. good luck now. m

Goin out tomorrow for a little while. Think I'll try some traps and some twitch baits and mabye some plastics. gonna cover ground and see if I can raise a fish or three

that is the one thing i dont have is many ratl traps i only have 1 bluegill color might look into getting a couple more before i head out. hope the boat starts or it will be a short voyage

Drew one strike from a short fish burning an orange rattle bait last Saturday and drew a strike trolling but never saw it because I suck at catching fish. Hope ya stick a big one! Did the traditional burn the trailer bearings thing and bless the muskie fisherman who showed up with a Oxy/Acetyleen torch.

i suck at catching fish to. but i thought even a blind squirrel found a nut every once in a while. i am heading out again saturday and hopefully late sunday to try my luck does anyone have any temp readings this week

Best I can recall thats where the name came from, but the old boy does know how to catch muskies.
