Good Break

Long over due but better late than never...isn't that what they say?!

During the recent MEA school break Keegan and his father opted to join me for some Muskie chasing. This was actually a birthday present from Keegan's parents back in Aug. We opted to fill that present when he was on school break.

Quick back ground. Keegan has fishing in his blood(similar to someone else I knew at that age), so I could relate to this young man and his passion for the sport. When most kids are asking for iPhones or video games for a b day present, Keegan asked for a guide trip for his favorite fish-the Muskie!

We opted for a fall October day knowing the fish should be most active. On only our 3rd spot of the morning we moved a couple nice fish. The one fish was very aggressive and there for I figured it would bit if we come from a different angle....that it did. 3 casts after looping around to give this big girl a different look and she took the bait.

On the end was Keegan's 2nd ever Muskie and biggest to date-51" of pure muscle and power. After a nice battle we got the fish landed, measured, and a couple quick photos before getting her back in the lake to fight another day.

As you can clearly tell the smile says it all! Congrats on a great fish Keegan and best of luck to you spending many days chasing your "addiction"! You deserved this one. Until next time, Fish On!

Arrows are flying and deer are die'n-part 2!

With bow hunting right around the corner, figured it was time to drop a video of Big Buff (Dustin Byfuglien) of the Winnipeg Jets punching his doe tag last year in WI. The guy can shoot more than pucks!
