Default Upper Musky

Fished for three hours and caught 8 very small brookies on butterworms. Seen lots of trout feeding on surface flies which I believe were March browns.
I heard the Musky gets the majority of the bigger stocked fish. Everyone I seen with a stringer had 11"-12" fish on them. All the fish I saw in the water were also really small.
Thank God for Maui Jim sunglasses. What a difference using real glass lens sunglasses compared to plastic lens. Everyone I meet that owns them loves them. Like the saying goes, you get what you pay for. My optometrist will not carry any other brand. That says it all for me. I now own four pairs of different color lens and styles. Best glare cutting glasses I ever used.

I own a half dozen different styles of Maui's.......amazing optics and I agree:VERY strong glasses!

If you'd like to try another brand of VERY high-quality polorized glass, look up REVO sunglasses.

Aint cheap (but you know what you have to spend for the best quality), but I personally feel the glass that REVO uses is even better than MJ's.

That's unbeliveable for low water fishing. Congratulations are in order. Please convey my thumbs up to your Dad. PM me with what bait worked best.
