Martin Fudulov <muskymartin67$yahoo.com> Lake Villa, IL USA - Thursday, July 02, 2009 at 17:52:05 (CDT) Fished on 7/1/09 and hit 2/3 fish. One of them was really nice, 50" and 32lbs. Fished south shore in 16FOW. The big one came on a boardrod a pike scale wiley straight. Chaz and Mikey Seremjian <runnerc60$yahoo.com> Brighton, mi USA - Thursday, July 02, 2009 at 15:30:52 (CDT) Went 2/2 on Sunday (6/28/2009). Very windy and was quite choppy. Definitely earned the fish we caught. Both fish were on down rods. We tried the usual setup, but it was not very popular. I threw on a 10 oz cannonball and put it 26 feet back, which got us pretty deep. Within 4 minutes the line was singing. On a blue frog Mason, we got a 41" with some girth. Speed was 4 mph, water depth was 18 fow between red barn and Belle River marina. The other was a 24" dink that didn't even pull any drag. Just found him spiraling behind us when we checked the lines. At least we didn't get skunked. I was talking to another guy after we got off the water (from Algonac I think it was) and he said his buddy fished all day and got nothing, but between late afternoon and dark, got 8 fish...so try in the evening. Tight Lines! Jordan Rivington <jordan.rivington$gmail.com> Windsor, ON Canada - Monday, June 29, 2009 at 20:14:43 (CDT) Went out on Sat. 27th in Anchor Bay. Water was like glass,. One rip and then he was gone. We did get one pike. Saw a dead Muskie floating about 25 lbs. Oh well maybe next time! jerry <jlkukurka$yahoo.com> gregory, mi USA - Monday, June 29, 2009 at 19:20:04 (CDT) Mikey and I fished LSC on 6/22/09 and went 4/5. The largest fish was 20 lbs and 40" in length. The other fish were quite a bit smaller. Hot lure was Lokey Firetiger on the boardrod 2oz/42'. We fished south shore near the red barn in 14-16 FOW. The big fish never made it into the net, the hooks got tangled in the net and we just pulled it into the boat. All fish sucessfully released! Another Great day on the Lake!

Hillbilly Hillbilly <seant$techii.com> Urbana, OH USA - Monday, June 22, 2009 at 15:12:24 (CDT) Fished between 6:00 am and 12:00pm on Sunday 6/14. We went 5/5 out in front of the Red Barn in 14-16 FOW. Trolling speed was 4 MPH. Hot lure was a 6" Mason blue (3 fish) frog with white belly. Other fish caught on $9 bass, firetiger, and olive frog. 3 of 5 came on down rod with 10 oz at 28 feet back, so pretty deep. The other 2 came on board rods, 3 oz and 30 feet back. Water was greenish blue and fairly clear. Lake was pretty much dead calm. No clouds. Fish were all small, but all healthy. 24", 26", 29", 30", and 36". All but one went back healthy. The no so lucky musky hit the lure so hard and turned that the second set of trebles got stuck in his gills. Nothing to be done. Tight lines! Jordan Rivington <jordan.rivington$gmail.com> Windsor, ON Canada - Tuesday, June 16, 2009 at 15:47:45 (CDT) Went out musky fishing for the first time, and went 1 for 1 with a 48 inch, 30 pound musky off of selfridge in 8 FOW. Was a great time, and I released it back into the water. Hoping to get back out later this week again, good luck to the rest of you.

Musky Newbie <jimrapier$Hotmail.com> chesterfield, mi USA - Thursday, June 11, 2009 at 12:03:42 (CDT) Went out on opening day. Anchorbay area to be exact, We got one for one at 8:40 am on a white perch Talonz lure. A little guy about 26 inches. lots of boats but I think I did better than alot of them that got skunked. Let me know if you did better than me. Water is kinda cold still. jerry k <jlkukurka$yahoo.com> gregory, mi. USA - Wednesday, June 10, 2009 at 20:43:29 (CDT) Wow - What an honor to post the first 2009 post on the Rocketmans site. The little guy (mikey) and I went 5 for 7 for our first trip out. All the muskies were small and not of usual size. But we sure did have fun. Six hit on firetiger and one on pike scale. 5 of the fish came on downrods and only 2 on the planer boards. The fish all looked very healthy, this bodes well for our fishing population. We were fishing south shore from 6:30am to 3:30pm. We also were visited by Canada Ministries who were conducting a survey. They didn't even ask for our license. Just a real polite and Cute girl asking questions about our fishing. Thanks to Rocketman and this site, who got us interested and started on the right path! Best of fishing fortune to all of you in 2009!
