Haven't Been around much last year or so. Work has kept me busy and so has chasing these goofy fish. Here's a couple of the better ones from the last couple weeks. We have had some really cool weather lately and they have been really agressive. Both in the lake and the streams

Is that a Bang-O-Lure or Rapala hanging out of that one?

LOVE me some muskies! We have them in a lake about an hour from me and they are a hoot when they're in the mood.

Nice bunch of fish !!

(see you got the necessities in the boat ... Fudge Rounds! Yummy!)
 
Thanks for the compliments
Hidalgo- that's not a rapala or a Bango. It's a Salmo skinner. It's been a good bait in the streams this year. The other fish were caught on clothespin spinners and topwater

Which lake? Melton hill? Buddy fishes it from time to time. Im only 30minutes from cave run so if I'm
Not creek fishing were at the cave
 
Great looking fish, friend of mine from work is headed to Canada in a couple weeks chasing these guys, there is a lake not far from me where the muskies were stocked in it years ago and they have really taken off, they wash over the dam and a lot of people fish for them in the spillway or go after them down stream when they begin to move down that way.

No, it's Woods Reservoir near Tullahoma TN. We didn't know they were there until they started biting the smallmouth jigs off the ends of our lines ......

We have several lakes here with very sparse populations also. Lake Ocoee has a few, as does the lower reaches of the Hiwassee River where it meets the Tennessee. Most folks never see them though, or the fish bites through the mono before they ever get a look at it. Once we found where they liked to hang out we would spend some time on them while bass fishing. Lots of fun for sure.

Would love to go to ontario and fish eagle lake. Maybe one day!

Hidalgo- how far are you from Melton hill? That lake is supposedly going to surpass cave run in the future
 
I read bango too fast. I was thinking you caught them with a "Banjo Minnow! " You need to work on your smile in your pics. Great fish.

We were up there in June this year. Best tripe we've ever had and we've had some great ones.

Here is a pic of a Musky my Dad caught when it latched onto a walleye he was bringing in. He never actually hooked the Musky but managed to land it.

We actually ran out of minnows on Tuesday. This was what we kept.
