Title: 1st Muskie of 2005
Post by: Otter on Mar 08, 2005, 07:07 PM
I'd retired my muskie rod to the car after no success this afternoon.  I decided to concentrate on walleye when this 36" muskie surprised me and hammered my grub.  It made my day!  First one of 2005...

Gotta love my deer-in-the-headlights stupid look, LOL!

It was pretty warm, although extremely windy!  It was a tough day I caught the largest carp of my life and this fish, which saved my day.

This is the pic of the carp, the snow in the background gives you a better temperature perspective.

My Mom was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in December and I moved back to spend time with her and help out...
This was one of the few times I got out.

Hey Otter,

Is that from the Susquehanna River in NY.  Catch any Walleyes?

Thanks, unfortunately she is terminal.  I'm gonna try to stay up here, I just get in an outdoor groove here, both hunting and fishing.

Good luck with that, that's the most difficult form of cancer to come back from. My thoughts are with you, take care.

BTW: Great muskie!!!

Nice Muskie. It looks like a nice day out. Of coarse anytime your fishing it's a nice day.

I'll sport the look if I can hold the fish!  Great day out, nice pics.  Tight lines.

Nice musky. All the places to target muskies here in NJ are still locked up with ice but as long as 1 of them has ice safe enough to fish on I won't complain.
