FIRST MUSKIE OF THE SEASON
FIRST MUSKIE OF THE SEASON
Topwater and I hit the Rideau River Sunday for a few hours ....not really looking for any particular fish....just fish. We worked shore lines and shore Structure for Bass, we worked deep for Small mouths, did a little flipping but only produced a few rock Bass a dink Large Mouth and a dink Smallie , but it was a great day on the water, so it was all good After working the Hurst Bridge we decided to troll for Muskie, Topwater Has no Rod holders in his boat yet ....so I sat at the back of the boat and just held on to the Rod.....not a easy thing to do for any length of time, at 4.5 MPH(GPS) dragging a 8 once Spinner bait But it did pay off about 10 minutes into the troll I felt a Sharp jerk on the rod...Fish -On, My first Muskie in two years, not much of a fight A couple on minutes the fish was in the net, few pics and a measurement and back she went
My first this year...36 inches
