If you have a car top boat that can be hand launched Lime Lake has 45"+ Tiger Muskies! They have been growing over the years because on next to no fishing pressure due to lack of regular boat access.The locals don't fish for them that much. Capt. Larry D. Jones Repeatability Is 90% Of The Hunt!

I caught all the muskies on Wiley Deep Diver Jtd 5 1/2" in Michigan Perch & Firetiger trolled at 5.5 mph using 60 lb test Leadcore with 4 colors(120 ft.)to get 18 ft. depths in 25 to 27 feet of water. Capt. Larry

The trip was great as far as fishing went,in between big motor high pressure fuel pump problems I caught and relerased 14 muskies to 46 inches. The Algee is breaking up and sinking in the North Basin,could troll for over 45 minutes without cleaning lines as well! Capt. Larry

There were a lot of fish caught & released Sunday.I had 5 muskies the biggest was 46",from near the Mayville Flats in 25 to 27 feet of water trolling Wiley Deep Diver Jtd 5 1/2" in Michigan Perch & Firetiger color.I used 4 colors(120 ft) of 60 lb test leadcore line to reach 18 ft down at 5.5 mph.I saw another boat white Starcraft with Wiley Lures decal catch a nice muskie in the same area.The radio reports had a couple more people catching and releasing 5 muskies or more from between the White Wall & SmithBoys in 11 ft. of water in the South Basin as well.Heard of 50",49 1/2"49"48",46"46" and another 29 muskies being caught from Thursday thru Sunday by a hand full of boats.

Zach,No I will not fish in a Tournament that I'm running and holding the Cash for the Winner as well.I'll be getting the Chicken Dinner setup from noon on!All the oldtimers on the Niagara River use to change lures before they came in and give you bum scoop.I vowed from those days where I was left learning on my own that I would noy be that way toward others starting out,I would help when ever I could.Over the years I have done seminars at the musky shows,the midwest and all around the northeast in past years,written for Musky Hunter Magazine,In-Fishermen and North American Fishermen,fished the PMTT,through all of this I have never forgot where I came from. Capt. Larry

Setup one rod with 60 lb test Mason Leadcore and you can get those 10" Believers to 30'+ no problem! Capt. Larry D. Jones

A better way to add even weight to Believers is to drill holes and fill with Corian Seam Kit Material you can get at Home Depot.The chambers fill evenly and become solid plastic,no more leakers filling with water at the hook hangers.This will add 25% to the diver curve,but the added weight means you will need to troll a little faster to get the same action.But you can now reach speeds of 6.0 mph without blow out!Because the Corian Seam Kit Material gets hot with the chemical reaction as it sets up you will need to wrap the crankbait in a cold wet rag as it cures or it could melt through around the hook hangers if you do not. Capt. Larry D. Jones

Durring the winter months and up to where the water gets up to 60 degrees in the spring one should wear a Mustang Survival Suit.The Mustang Survival Coverals are like wearing a snowmobile suit,but when you go overboard the closed cell floatation will pressure up again'st your body to insulate you.The blow up pillow behind the neck coller will turn you face up in the water if you get knocked out or pass out to hypothermia.The suit will keep you warm and may save your life! The suit could double the time you could survive in freezing water temps. Capt. Larry D. Jones

Bob, No I never got a call or email from Terry of Lapper Lures yet! I'll put the Molson XXX on Ice as well! I'll be down on Chautauqua on Monday for some Trolling & Casting,I'll give a report here and on my site when I return home. Capt. Larry

I'll bring a case of Molson XXX and see who's thursty! Capt. Larry

On Sept. 18th Guide Mike Sperry will give a Seminar at 7:00p.m. at Happy Hooker Bait Shop.The Door Prizes are:Beckman Magnum FinSaver Net and (4)four Hi-Fin Magnum Trophy Divers Jtd w/Niagara Big Two Pull Lip in Glitter Shad color! All you need to do to win is show up! Those who send in their $25 Tourney Entry Fee by August 31st will go into a Drawing for a St.Croix 8' Hvy Premier Rod value $230. As of August 22nd there are 25 fishermen in so far,thats 26:1 odds for the next fishermen that sends in his Tourney Entry Fee! Send your Tourney Entry Fee of $25 to Capt. Larry D.
