nice fish norm, a long time ago i missed the first muskie i ever saw right out from that white house your boat is by in the picture, maybe its just a good spot

[NormS]

Thanks guys...Been having a good spring so far at Hopatcong and Greenwood, lucks been good. That was the first decent sized fish I got off those drops. Slipbob that fish only went around 30lbs, was post spawned and slimmed out, you could lift it easy. I only take em out of water for 20 seconds or less to get 2 quick shots, then right back in the water to fight again.

I thought it might of been swartswood, that house looks familiar.

No Muskies in Swartswood, just big Walleyes.
Good Fishing Guys.

Very nice catch what was the set up bait, Line Size hook ect thanks

[NormS]

Never use live bait or HOOKS for Muskies, artificials only. Catch more and bigger fish that way and also enables you to release them unharmed.
