Fellas,
I've never felt pressure like this to put a good fish in the boat.....and no a 4 pound bass don't count... The weather has been piping hot.....and in my areas hasn't done anything to move a fish for me anyways..... ...Gordo lost a 30 incher last night at the net....a swipe boatside the night before....and not a sniff tonight....
Now there is a major cold front moving in......tomorrow...dropping temps by minimum 10 degrees for the high....making the next days ahead very tough in my eyes.....but who knows....certainly not me...
Almost ready to pack it in-RJ
P.S. I did come across something last night in my boat that didn't help things much .....if I do catch a fish you'll find out what it was...

The only time I realy target muskie ...is when I go with RJ and Gordo, and a couple of times with john in the past two years, The first time I went for Muskie was a fall get together put together by Fish-Hawk and Bobber on the Rideau...up for grabs was a fish-hawk tee shirt and Hat..topwater and Salmon tied for the largest 39"... I got a 35" tiger, that is also the first time I met RJ, John and Salmon. i had no Muskie Equipment, so i used a 10.5 foot noodle rod and a J-13 Jointed repala , the biggest lure I had at the time Topwater and I were happy to boat two Fish. I will try and go out a couple more times this year....but i do hear those monster Walleye callingMoosebunk wrote:Honestly, the fishing Big-O puts in during a year I'm surprised it's your first. Mustn't be targetting them, or otherwise just fishing with RJ the last month or so.
feel the burn RJ
Nice fish biggy.
