| Muskie season off to a good start |
|
Some anglers report more, bigger fish June 14, 2007 BY ERIC SHARP FREE PRESS OUTDOORS WRITER Fishing guide Jon Bondy of Windsor caught this 51-inch muskie in the Detroit River, deep-jigging with a large Bondybait lure he created for this technique The opening days of the muskellunge season on Lake St. Clair and the Detroit River have seen anglers catching more fish than at the same time last year, and some big fish for this early in the season. "It's better than last spring, but it's still a little slow" by Lake St. Clair standards, said Mike Pittiglio, who runs the charter boat Muskie Mania. "We were 4-for-9 one day, then 2-for-3 the next and then 1-for-2. The main problem the last two d...

| Ozark muskies are guide's giant obsession |
|
By BRENT FRAZEE The Kansas City StarPublished: June 14th, 2007 When Earle Hammond goes fishing at Pomme de Terre Lake, he focuses on the top of the food chain. Your first clue? The lures he uses. They're bigger than the fish most people catch. "This one is only 9 inches," he said, holding up a Grandma crankbait he was soon trolling through the clear water. "But we'll troll baits as long as 13 inches. "When you're going after a big fish, you use a big bait." Spoken like a true muskie fisherman. Hammond, like other muskie fanatics, lives in a super-sized world. You won't find any ultralight tackle in his boat. Everything's big - from the lures he uses to his rods and reels to the fish he pu...

| No treble yell for Dolsen |
|
ONE TOUGH GUIDE | Muskie fishing is his game in north central Ind. June 13, 2007 BY DALE BOWMAN Staff Reporter LEESBURG, Ind. -- A Mustad treble hook had just pierced the flesh of his right arm, but Chae Dolsen nonchalantly said, ''Hand me the bolt cutters.'' I should mention the treble hook was attached to a Super Stalker lure, and another treble on the lure was attached to a lively 40-inch muskie, whose weight stretched Dolsen's skin like something on a perverse tanning board. He snipped the hook in half, then unhooked the muskie in the net. ''At seminars, I say these bolt cutters are the most important tool, more important than the net,'' Dolsen said. ''People say, 'You paid $50 for bo...

Guide uses big baits to lure bigger gamefish at Pomme de Terre Lake. HERMITAGE, Mo. | When Earle Hammond goes fishing at Pomme de Terre Lake, he focuses on the top of the food chain. Your first clue?

| Muskie from New River may set new record |
|
Shannon Hill caught the big fish on a Jitterstick plug after only four or five casts. By Mark Taylor The black Jitterstick plug was gurgling rhythmically across the surface of the New River when the attack came, the ferocious explosion echoing through the darkness. Chris Snider wasn't the least bit surprised. The vicious muskellunge had hit his buddy Shannon Hill's lure. They always seem to hit Hill's lure. "I call him Mr. Horseshoe," said Snider, a 33-year-old cable contractor from Christiansburg. "He just has that kind of luck." Hill's luck rose to another level Friday. That massive muskie weighed 45 pounds, 8 ounces, topping the state record by half a pound. Hill has already submitted ...

| Muskies could be an addiction |
|
The muskie season opened on Saturday, which means the entire 2007 open water season is now officially under way. Muskie fishing is good in Minnesota. When it comes to sheer numbers and overall size structure of the muskies within our lakes, some argue that Minnesota is the best in the country. I'm not a muskie fisherman and have no intentions of joining the growing number of other muskie anglers in the state. It's not that I wouldn't enjoy catching these big critters, but from what I've heard, once you start it's tough to stop. I know quite a few good walleye fishermen who hooked their first muskie and quit fishing walleyes ? and everything else for that matter. While I understand the add...
