The Most Overused Phrases in Musky Fishing Today are....

[BlueEye]

Ok, I'll start.....

She CRUSHED IT!

 

I picture a good fish coming up behind a lure and barely nipping the last hook just to test things out and accidentally getting lip hooked.  Angler feels the weight of the fish and fights it to the boat and without fail, the first words out of their mouth once the fish is in the net...... "she just crushed it!" 

 

This cold weather has me watching too many musky videos on YouTube recently.

It's barely hooked!

 

Ironically, if the fish "crushes it" or not, they are always proclaimed to be "barely hooked" when it is near net time...

Zach once told me the rarest musky in the world is a 49.5" incher.... I believe this to be true as you said Smoke-N-Finn.

How about? I knew that fish was there, I had her hooked for 10 seconds, you should have seen the one that came up with her. Lol

Paying my dues. Although often the truth.

 

Fattie. When it really isn't that fat. But some truly deserve that label when they are fat for the length.

On my boat these overused phrases are usually questions from customers.

 

1. How big do they have to be to keep?

 

2  What if I get a really big one can I keep it then?

 

3. What if it's a state record then can I keep it?

 

4.  How big do you think that one was?

 

Answers

36 but it doesn't matter because we aren't keeping one

 

No

 

No but I'll measure it!

(While trolling) " we gotta be at about 9,837 casts by now, ones gonna bite soon. "

“Had three follows”. Translation: I missed one that slashed at the lure as I lifted it out without doing a figure eight because I got sloppy after 7 hours of nothing.

When fishing with my Dad I have to tell him after he has caught 2 or 3, if you catch 1 more before I get 1 your swimming back. Lol.
