Default Monksville Mugging

Feeling the desire to stick a fork in my eye I took the Mugger up to Monksville yesterday afternoon for the first time since early spring. Did a little searching and found a pile of bluegills. Caught a few and was happy enough i avoided the Monksville skunk. Hit another spot and caught a couple dink smallies and yellow and then jigged up a little walleye. I was satisfied. Then a boat full of jabronies attempted to mug the mugger and i wasn't having it. The spot was beatin up anyway so i took off to couple other points i like to fish...Found em! Got a quick dink on the first drop then the fish grew larger. Put a nice 23 in the net, then a monster 27, then a 22. Gotta love it when the stars align on Monksville.

When is the next time a catch like this will happen? Amazing! Awesome looking Walleye and hell of a job finding the feeding fish!

Damn Bro, save some for the rest of us! HAHA, spectacular job Scoward. I love the opening line of this report...

That is hilarious. That is an incredible day there, I'm glad the paddleboard brigade didn't spook all of them beasties over the dam.

Nice job Scott! One might say that you de-skunked skunksville with a nice mixed bag, with quality to boot. That place has become a zoo with all the non-fishermen this Summer especially on a nice day. Going to send this post to Mike and Brian.
