Road Trip Muskies

wisconsin heat · June 29, 2017

Earlier this week a buddy of mine shot me a text saying he had an incredible day on the water. I had a business trip scheduled and I was going to pass right through his town. So naturally, like any good friend would do, I invited myself on a fishing venture for the evening. I met him on the Black River at 6 pm and were fishing shortly after. After about an hour of no strikes and a couple lost lures I hooked into the first fish. Back-peddled my way back to shore and landed this beautiful 34.5" Muskie!

It wasn't ten minutes later that I made a cast next to a bridge piling and another muskie rolled on my spinnerbait but didnt hook up! I cast right back at it, and she rolled on it the exact same way, again no hookup! Well, I continued to fish that area, and 15 minutes later I cast right back at the bridge piling and hook up! This one fought much harder and offered some airborn acrobatics! This beauty measured a good 38"! All in all, a great trip to spend some quality time with a friend and get me on some beautiful fish!
