Default first musky



I spend this morning (and several other trips this spring) fishing specifically for these guys, and with little or no luck besides lost fish and a couple follows, finally after putting some time in and a few words of encouragement and advice from Catfishonthelake i caught (and released) my first musky hallelujah the wait is over!

Nice job man. I told you if you were moving fish that you're doing something right, at that point it's just persisting until one stays stuck. Pretty fish, good stuff and congrats. I hope you didn't catch the bug with that fish, if you did, you're done man.
